Condition: UsedA vehicle is considered used if it has been registered and issued a title. Used vehicles have had at least one previous owner. The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"It was in Average shape until about 2 months ago. It had a bunch of issues at once and after fixing a few I'm giving up on it. It needs a new Alternator and Battery. It also needs to have the convertible top adjusted and have the expensive sensor that acknowledges the top is closed replaced(car beeps at you now). There is a hole on the inside lining of the top. It needs two front tire in the near future, they were out of alignment for too long. The last time I charged it, it didn't want to drive when put in gear, so there may be a mechaninical issue. The seats are leather but are worn and in poor shape. The stiching has come out in most of the passanger side seat, a little of the drivers side seat, and a spot in the back seat. There are several scuffs, tears, and scratches directly below the back window, which is shown in one picture. The front and back bumpers are scuffed and scratched in several places, and the back bumper has a cracked spot about the size of a golf ball."
I'm sorry to sell it but a bunch of issues popped up at once, so my loss is your gain. While I see a lot of women driving this car, it always seemed more masculine than most convertibles with its wide stance. It ran well until about 2 months ago, with good acceleration when you put the pedal down. It handled pretty well on turns and stopped well. It is a fun car to drive and the styling still looks good today, especially with the upgraded factory rims. The issues I ran into and why I'm selling are listed in the condition description, but I'll list them in three groups in terms of priority.
The battery*, alternator*, convertible top sensor**, and whatever mechanical issue* it has need to be looked at before this car is drivable.
The tires need to be replaced in the near future (2-3 months?) as they are worn wrong but currently in alignment and the convertible top needs to be adjusted to be functioning so you get the convertible experience.
The front and rear bumper and the seats are scratched, scrapped, and scuffed, also there is a hole in the convertible top interior liner***, if you want to improve the cosmetics, those are the problem areas.
*I was told the battery and alternator needed to be replaced by Don Beyer Volvo, they didn't ID any mechanical issue but I"'m guess there is one.
**I put the convertible top sensor in the drivable list because the car will have a bell ringing constantly until that sensor is replaced.
*** I have never seen any leaking whatsoever from the top
I think it is actually the 2.4L, but I'm not sure so I checked 2.3L. It has the upgraded Dolby Surround stereo. Power Windows and roof.
I am the third owner and I serviced it regularly at Don Beyer in Falls Church. I purchased it from my mother and I know she did the same. The original owner was a middle aged woman my mother purchased it from.
This is local pickup only. The car needs work, so it will have to be towed. Buyer will be responsible for the towing.

Volvo will replace C70... eventually
Tue, 05 Nov 2013Volvo has already announced the end of production for its C70 hardtop convertible, a handsome but seriously dated offering that was last refreshed in 2010. Volvo won't be abandoning the two-door coupe-convertible market for long, though, as news out of Australia claims that a replacement, based on the striking Concept Coupe, will join the Chinese-owned, Swedish brand's ranks, although it's unclear precisely when we'll see it on the road.
"Eventually yes... as soon as possible," Hakan Samuelsson, Volvo's CEO, told the Drive, before adding, "when we are ready."
"The Coupe Concept car, we can put that into production and it will have an exposure on the brand. But at the end it's the cream on the cake and at the end you need the cake first before you put the cream on it," said Volvo's Senior Vice President of Product Strategy and Vehicle Line Management, Lex Kerssemakers.

See Volvo's integration of Apple CarPlay in action
Mon, 03 Mar 2014Apple unveiled its new CarPlay touchscreen infotainment system earlier today, and Volvo has just released a video showing the system in action. The Cupertino tech giant is expected to announce partnerships with Ferrari and Mercedes-Benz to license CarPlay, as well, at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show and will be working with even more manufacturers in the future.
The system pairs the driver's iPhone with the car's infotainment system and seamlessly allows them use the smart phone's functions and, at least in Volvo's demonstration, the car's climate control and seat heating systems. According to the video, the new system will be available "in the coming generation Volvo cars," which likely means the upcoming, next-generation Volvo XC90.
However, the system will not work universally. Apple will add functionality through an update to iOS 7 in the future for the iPhone 5, 5C and 5S. At launch other devices won't be supported. Scroll down to watch CarPlay work. We are expecting more details to emerge on the new infotainment system when the Swiss show opens tomorrow.
