Medford, Oregon, United States

I am reducing my sports car collection and therefor selling my restored 1969 Volvo 1800S sports coupe.   It has recently been restored with many new parts including engine rebuild by prior owner.  It was repainted in Oakland Raider colors by the prior owner a Raider Fan.   She spend a lot of money on the restoration to make this a desirable driving Volvo that should increase in value over time.  It has twin Carbs and is much more user friendly that the later injected model.  It has the smaller desireable chrome bumpers, great working overdrive and new brakes and running gear.  It was not  a full body off restoration but rather "ground up" hence it is not a #1 car but I rate it as a #2 clean but not prestine.   
We did not like the old Volvo seats and had access to two newer BMW coupe, leather heated power seats which we installed.   I would feel comfortable driving this Volvo most anywhere but is you want to trailer her I a compact two wheel car trailer that fits her nicely and will sell it with the car for $900 over the auction price.  

We have set a very reasonable reserve and it should be met.  So bid to own.   
If you have less than 10 positive ratings please don't bid without contaction me for approval.  

You may see the Volve and a test drive and inspection is encouraged.  As with all used vehicles it is sold as is here in Medford, Oregon.   I will help shipping if desired.  
If you have questions please email me at whf2929@aol.com or call me at 541 944 2929 and I will try to answer them.  

Thanks for looking and bidding.  It is for sale.   I am approaching 80 and sports cars are too hard to enter with this stoved up body.

Watch Volvo's V8 Supercar drivers play with the Polestar S60 in the Arctic

Thu, 03 Apr 2014

The Volvo S60 Polestar may not seem like a natural fit for the V8 Supercars series that runs throughout Australia, New Zealand and Tasmania. After all, the all-wheel-drive production-spec car isn't even available with a V8. But the rear-wheel-drive racing version has acquitted itself well in the early races of the season, even scoring an overall win at a race in Melbourne. Currently at seventh place in the championship, the S60 the most successful car that isn't a Holden or Ford.
To celebrate its burgeoning success, Volvo sent its V8 Supercars drivers Robert Dahlgren and Scott McLaughlin to home base in Sweden to have some fun driving in the snow and to visit Polestar headquarters. The two of them do some big power slides on an icy lake and then taker a deeper look into the company's performance division. Scroll down to watch the video full of sliding Swedish sedans.

Volvo calls in S60 T5 over oil pressure indicator

Mon, 30 Dec 2013

As anyone with a driver's license should be able to tell you, the oil pressure indicator on a car is a vital feature. If you don't have enough oil pressure, your engine could seize up, leaving you stranded and causing catastrophic damage for both your automobile and your wallet. Worryingly, then, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says that the oil pressure indicator lamp on certain Volvo S60 models is prone to failure, prompting the manufacturer to issue a recall.
The issue pertains to MY2011-2012 Volvo S60s with turbocharged five-cylinder engines manufactured between June 22, 2010 and May 14, 2012. All told, precisely 30,929 units are affected by the recall campaign. The owners of affected models will be notified by Volvo to bring in their cars to their local dealer for a software update. See the official notice below for details.

Volvo S60, XC60 caught testing with freshened faces

Thu, 24 Jan 2013

Neither the Volvo S60 nor the Volvo XC60 are that old, but the Swedish automaker is wasting no time ensuring that two of its most popular products don't get stagnant on the market, a fate that has befallen some of the other products it offers.
Even though these two models helped usher in a new styling direction for Volvo not too long ago, the modest facelifts on tap for both looks like they will bring both products closer to the styling of the handsome overseas V40 hatchback.
Aside from the pointier front end, the XC60 crossover is also getting a revised rear fascia that now includes integrated dual exhaust outlets. The shots of the S60 show us that the sedan's interior will be getting minor tweaks as well, including reshaped front seats and a new shift lever.
