This is probably a car I will regret selling. But with a wife & three kids to haul as well as a bigger boat to pull, it doesn't make sense to let her sit. I have had this car 6 years and have driven her to Florida and back 2 times. I would not hesitate to drive her that distance again. She has low miles, no accidents, always well maintained and runs & drives great. The T5 model is a step below the R version. Same engine as the R minus a chip that adds about 12 hp and the badging. It looks slow. But is not. With the transmission button set on Sport or economy, she is very quick and fun to drive. She also has a hidden hitch and is wired for lights. Newer Goodyear high performance tires. Recent VA inspection (3/2013). Interior not perfect. But in really good shape for her age. On the highway, she gets about 28 miles per gallon.
She is not perfect, however, is in great shape for a 1997 car. Here is what I know she needs: rear shock absorbers, bumper(?) within the rear coil spring that protects if bottomed out and hydraulic lift for rear hatch. The paint is in very good shape with the exception of the clear coat coming off the roof.
Car is sold as-is/where is. I have done my best to honestly describe exactly what I am auctioning. Winning bidder is responsible for arranging pick-up/transportation of vehicle.
Serious bids only. Do not bid unless you are a legitimate bidder, can pay the winning bid and arrange/pay for transportation. I will be selling this locally, so may stop the auction early.
Non-refundable deposit must be received no later than 24 hours after close of auction
Please let me know if you have any questions. Happy bidding.

2014 Volvo V60 to start at $35,300*
Tue, 31 Dec 2013When Volvo announced US pricing for its updated 2014 model line, it left one vital model out of the equation: that would be the V60, the long-roofed version of the S60 sedan and the long-awaited replacement for the V70 wagon that left our shores nearly four years ago. But if you look at the V60's product page now, you'll see a starting MSRP listed at $35,300. That represents a $2,900 premium over the S60 and an $800 premium over the larger (but older) XC70 softroader.
Delve further into the online configuration tool and you'll see that the price is applied, naturally, to the base turbocharged five-cylinder, front-drive model. Go for the Premier or Platinum trims and the price begins to climb, as it does with the addition of all-wheel drive, the turbo six engine and the R-Design spec. You'll also need to account for the *$915 destination charge. Tick all the boxes and you'll soon be looking at a price tag of over $50,000. Order books open with the start of the new year.
2015 Volvo XC90 proves Sweden's auto industry is alive and well [w/video]
Fri, 03 Oct 2014The 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.
AB Volvo lands a big order for electric commercial trucks
Fri, Oct 8 2021STOCKHOLM — Volvo Trucks has received an order for 100 electric trucks from shipping firm DFDS, its biggest commercial electric truck order to date, the Swedish truck maker said on Wednesday. Volvo Trucks, AB Volvo's main truck brand, said the order was one of the largest ever for heavy electric trucks worldwide, adding that deliveries would start in the fourth quarter of 2022. The FM Electric trucks, which have a range of up to 300 kilometers (186 miles), will be used for both short and long transport in Europe. Volvo, which started serial production of electric trucks in 2019, is targeting for half of its global truck deliveries to be electric in 2030. "We are pleased to see that growing interest among our customers is starting to be reflected in firm orders," Volvo Trucks President Roger Alm said in a statement. A 'green' shift in the transport sector, which generates roughly a quarter of global carbon dioxide emissions, is widely seen as important to help align with global climate goals.
