1995 volvo 850 glt wagon in good condition. this has the non-turbo 2.4 litre 5 cylinder.
exterior is in above average condition for the age and mileage having only one minor rust spot behind passenger rear door, just above the rocker panel cover between the door and the wheelwell. the spot is only bubbled not rusted thru. the rest of the exterior is very clean with only stone chips along the rocker covers and minor scratches hear and there as you would expect with an 18 year old car. all glass is intact and in good condition. car does have headlight wipers but the passenger side is broken off and in the glove box. the front tires are brand new with less than 300 miles on them as of 2/25/2013. the rear tires were put on to pass inspection last year and they have just under 8000 miles on them. in march of 2012 i replaced both front control arms which included the ball joints,both outer tie rods, both upper strut mount bearings and also two rear control arm bushings.
interior is in average condition. the leather seats are in decent shape with mostly just cracks in the leather. the driver seat does have one or two small tears but nothing major. the power drivers seat works great as well as all three memory settings. the passenger seat is manual. both seats are heated but the drivers does not work, the passenger side works good. all electrical items function properly with the exception of the drivers side view mirror defrost, it is non operational, the rest if the mirror operates fine. the door panels have some marks on them but very minor. the carpet is in average condition, having a hole worn thru in the drivers foot well where you would rest your left foot. there are some stains in the cargo area. there is a package tray behind the rear seats that is intact but does have some cracks. there is a built in child seat (see pic) that looks like it has never been used and in this day and age it probably should remain that way.
the audio system works very well and appears to be original, am/fm with cassette and there is a six disc cd changer in the cargo area mounted under the floor panel. the changer works good. all speakers have good sound.
power sunroof is in great working order.
a believe i am the third owner. there are a lot of service records in the glove box from the previous owner.
engine runs good getting about 18-19 mpg city and 25-26 mpg highway. it could use a tune up and i dont know the last time it was done, it runs so good i didn't bother. i do know the timing belt was replaced around 127000 miles. i just changed the oil about 300 miles ago.. the transmission shifts smoothly being a 4 speed. it has economy, sport, and winter modes. the upper engine mount bushing is new (its more of a stabilizer than a mount). air conditioning does work but has a slow leak. i recharged it in june and it lasted me thru the summer, cooling the car pretty well for being a wagon.
overall the car is in good running/driving condition that needs very little work. parts are cheap and easy to work on. this would make a good first car for a new driver or a good commuter car for someone in college.
a deposit of $250.00 is due within 48 hours of auction close. balance due upon pick-up. cash or certified bank check only! NO PERSONAL CHECKS OR MONEY ORDERS. paypal may be used for the deposit only.

Uber hopes facilities in Detroit will help shape its autonomous future
Mon, Sep 19 2016Hot off the heels of unleashing its fleet of self-driving vehicles in Pittsburgh, PA, Uber announced plans to open a new facility in the Detroit, MI area, reports Automotive News. The new facility was announced at an event hosted by Society of Automotive Engineers in Detroit, MI. Uber's vice president of global vehicle programs Sherif Marakby revealed the news, reports Automotive News. The facility is meant to help the ride-sharing company collaborate with suppliers and automakers in the area. There's no word on where Uber will build the new facility or how big it will be, as those factors have yet to be determined. Just like Pittsburgh, PA, Detroit, MI could become another testing ground for the ride-sharing company. The latest move to open a facility in the Detroit area comes after Uber offered users in Pittsburgh the chance to ride in one of its autonomous vehicle as it looks to gain vital real-world testing. Uber is utilizing a fleet of modified Ford Fusions. Earlier this year in April, the automaker announced a partnership with Google, Lyft, Uber, and Volvo to develop autonomous cars. A new facility in Detroit would strengthen the partnership and help Uber, as well as Ford put autonomous vehicles on the road faster.

2020 Volvo XC90 Inscription Interior Driveway Test | A lesson in minimalist luxury
Thu, Sep 10 2020We tend to love Volvo interiors. They’re beautiful, simple, inviting and a relaxing place to spend time in. Designers needed to get it right, too, because Volvo has applied the same styling and design language to every vehicle in its lineup. WeÂ’re focusing on the flagship today: the 2020 Volvo XC90 T8 Inscription. Since our tester is the Inscription trim, that means itÂ’s the most luxurious version of the bunch (Momentum and R-Line are the two others). Some highlights include perforated Nappa leather seats, a “tailored dashboard,” Gray Ash Wood trim inlays and the Orrefors crystal shift knob. Our car had the Charcoal interior scheme to play along nicely with the trim. The contrast between the light wood trim and gray stitching with the black leather is pleasing to the eye. Volvo uses a gratuitous but not overwhelming amount of piano black trim to bring some shine to the interior. ItÂ’s nice to see and touch on the buttons, but gets dirty quickly around the flat gear lever area where dust tends to collect. Much of the dash is left blank in a nod to minimalism. WeÂ’re left with a large nine-inch touchscreen oriented vertically in the center, just like every other Volvo on sale today. This is flanked by the center air vents. ThereÂ’s little to no styling going on with the vents, which seems like a missed opportunity. Regardless, we dig the layered and nicely-stitched dash that comes with the Inscription model. Also nestled into the dash is this crossoverÂ’s 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster. ItÂ’s basic in its visuals, but plenty effective at conveying important car information. We like the more vibrant and customizable clusters from Mercedes-Benz and Audi a lot, but this one gets the job done and it isnÂ’t distracting in the least bit. Volvo has your back when it comes to comfort. Our tester has the Luxury Package, so itÂ’s equipped with massaging front seats, heated rear seats and a heated steering wheel. Additionally, Volvo finishes the headliner in Nubuck, and the grab handles and visors get leather. Unlike everybody else, Volvo allows you to choose between three levels of heat for the steering wheel. ItÂ’s noticeable to our hands, and is great when you want to add a little heat into your fingers without being scalded. As for the massage, itÂ’s backrest only. We wish it was back and bottom, but at least the programs available for your back are soothing.
Jaguar turns down offers to join V8 Supercars, questions AMG, Volvo participation
Thu, 27 Jun 2013Rumors have swirled in recent weeks that Jaguar may be the next manufacturer to join the V8 Supercars racing series, made popular in Australia but now well-known in other parts of the world as well. Sadly, Jag's participation is not to be. In fact, it would be "insane," according to Jaguar Land Rover Asia Pacific Managing Director David Blackhall, for it to accept either of the two offers it has received to bring Jaguar into V8 Supercars.
Not only is Jaguar not interested in entering V8 Supercars, says Blackhall, it also fails to understand the recent entries from AMG and Volvo. "I don't know what it does for AMG to get flogged by a V8 Commodore week after week, but it's their brand, their issue. And the same thing will happen to Volvo to be honest."
Judging by Blackhall's statements to motoring.com.au, after not-so-serious consideration, the automaker decided the monetary commitment it would take to compete for wins would be more than any potential exposure would be worth, despite the fact that Jaguar has a 5.0-liter V8 to go along with what would seem to be a tailor-made rear-wheel-drive chassis. For what it's worth, one offer would have had Jaguar putting its name across an engine made by someone else, an option that was flatly turned down.
