 This is a 1996 Volvo 850 "R" with 291,968 miles on it. It is in very good condition. The only thing not working at this time is the air conditioning. The car has power windows, power locks, a power moon roof, cruise control, seat heaters, power mirrors, rear area cover that retracts, power seats for driver and passenger. AM-FM stereo with cassette and CD, enhanced stereo as part of the "R" package. The "R" designation means that this is a Porsche designed performance package automobile. It has a computer chip that gives the turbo extra boost. It develops 243 horsepower. The wheels are 17" diameter spoke wheels. The upholstery has suede inserts. The door panels are leather trimmed. The dash has a dark walnut / beryl looking trim accent.

The car has been Extreme Dynamat lined for sound deadening. Inside the doors are lined, as well as the rear tire well. It was done before I got the car and I am not sure where else is lined.

This car is smooth and powerful. Just a tap of the throttle sails you up to highway speed when entering an on ramp. The tires are in near new condition. The brakes are new. It has a new front wheel hub. It has a new catalytic converter. It has a new timing belt, installed 1000 miles ago. It is registered in California until May of 2014. It has a fresh smog check done this week. The stereo works very well. It has a bit of turbo lag that can be adjusted out I have been told. As long as you roll on the throttle easily, you will never notice it. The upholstery is in very good condition. The roof of the car has been repainted. The color matched the alloy wheels.  It has a factory roof rack.

Call me to make a direct deal at 760-481-8710. If we can make a deal before 12 hours are left on the auction I can close down this auction. It is being advertised locally and may be closed as soon as I can make a deal.

I would consider a trade for an inboard / outboard ski boat with an open bow and a V-6 engine.

2015 Volvo XC90 proves Sweden's auto industry is alive and well [w/video]

Fri, 03 Oct 2014

The most important new Volvo in quite some time has made its first auto show appearance, with the second-generation XC90 debuting at the 2014 Paris Motor Show.
As we discussed in both our original post and Deep Dive feature, the new XC90 remains a three-row crossover for 2015, although it ditches the first-gen model's top-end, turbocharged six-cylinder in favor of a single twin-charged, 2.0-liter, four-cylinder engine. By pairing that with a plug-in-electric powertrain, the king of the XC90 range, the T8 TwinEngine, will offer up 400 horsepower. So yeah, performance should be brisk.
Also appearing on 2015 XC90 will be an entirely new, Apple CarPlay-compatible infotainment system with a big, vertical touchscreen display at its heart. Based on the videos we've seen, the new system looks responsive, feature-laden and quite attractive.

Automotive April Fools' joke roundup [w/videos]

Mon, 01 Apr 2013

Happy April, everyone. And we all know what this first day of the month means: April Fools' Day. Today is a national holiday for pranksters with the Internet acting as a serious enabler, and it's always fun to see what kind of vivid imaginations exist out there in the automotive world. The abundance of fake news gets a little old as the day rolls on, but we did manage to get in a few chuckles thanks to a handful of major automakers and automotive news outlets that got into the pranking spirit this year
Some of our favorites this year includes Subaru showing what happens when you combine a bunch of rumors, a Corvette some may have already thought was a joke or Honda providing some in-car innovation circa the late 1980s. Honestly, we're still waiting for official confirmation from Mitsubishi that the recently introduced 2014 Mirage is an elaborate April Fools' joke using a failed design intended for the 1995 Geo Metro. We dug up as much "official" OEM foolishness we could find, as well as some of our other favorites, and posted them all below.

Big rig gets blown over on Wyoming freeway, flattens police cruiser

Sun, Feb 12 2017

A big rig navigating a stretch of windy Wyoming highway last week was blown over by high winds and landed on a Wyoming Highway Patrol cruiser. According to CBS News, three Wyoming Highway Patrol troopers responded to an accident along Interstate 80 near Elk Mountain on February 7. While the troopers were out of their cars assisting the crash victims, a white Volvo semi-truck lumbered up I-80 toward them. Wind gusts in that part of Wyoming were clocked in at up to 90 miles per hour on Tuesday, and one of them caught the semi as it neared the parked cruisers. Video from one of the cruiser's onboard cameras showed the big rig drift to the right as a big gust hit the trailer. Slowly, the whole rig tipped over and flattened one of the parked cruisers. The truck then slid a few feet on its side and came to a stop just aft of the cruiser. None of the troopers were injured in the incident, and two people in the truck came out of it unhurt as well. Patrol Lieutenant David Wagener told KGWN that that stretch of I-80 was closed on Tuesday to lightweight, high-profile vehicles. The truck driver was cited for the incident. High winds are no joke, and vehicles getting blown around or even clean off the road is a pretty common phenomenon. Way back in 2011, a truck got blown over in Utah. Then there was a train that got blown off a bridge in Louisiana in 2015.
