2004 Volvo C70 Convertible- Rare Color, Dealer Maintained Priced For Fast Sale! on 2040-cars
Charlottesville, Virginia, United States
|
Just in time for spring- This is THE convertible bargain on Ebay! I've just dropped the price over $1,000 to get it sold this week.
I have a small collection of classic cars (primarily Volvo's and Saab's) and after a buying spree over the winter I am forced to thin the herd by a few cars now that spring is here. I just sold one of my Saabs earlier this week and now we need to sell this cream puff to buy our son his first car- preferably an older wagon/SUV. I purchased this beautiful convertible from a dealer in Pennsylvania that specializes in high end Volvo's. What attracted me to the car- and what the new owner will find most exciting- is the unique color combination that was only available in 2004 (Sky blue metallic over linen/taupe interior). This Volvo was special ordered from the factory and picked up in Sweden in 2004 by the original owner. Completing the interior is the unique teak style dash wood inlays that extends to the console and shifter. From the condition I can only assume this car has always been garaged, as it is now. The navy canvas top- 2004 was the last of the canvas top convertibles for Volvo- is in excellent condition- see photos. The original owner and second owner before me had virtually all service done by the dealer (Volvo of Ft. Washington, Pa). I called that dealer after I purchased the car and they had 48 service records on file including records for a recent timing belt change. For privacy reason, the dealer I bought the car from would not include hard copies of the service records, but if you give the dealer the Vin# they have all records on their computer. While the pictures tell the story- there are small nicks, scratches etc typical of a 10 year old car...but you can see how beautiful the paint still shines- The Carfax shows a minor accident in 2010 which I believe included the plastic airdam underneath the front bumper where the fog lights were removed. The interior is very clean. The car has had an oil/filter change less than 3,000 miles ago and I had the transmission flushed and changed at the Volvo dealer here in Virginia in December. The car has a December 2014 Virginia state inspection decal and I had a Volvo dealer do the inspection. New tie rods were installed to pass inspection. There are 4 matching Continental tires (over 80% tread remaining) mounted on very rare Volvo 17 inch "Arrakis" wheels- an unusual sight on a C70. Unused spare and all tools included as shown in photos. The a/c is charged and blows cold. All original Volvo books are included. I have just one key and no alarm fob. Issues that I know of: *one of the rear window switches occasionally sticks but all four windows go up and down when the convertible top is opened and closed * the hood latch occasionally sticks- I've heard this is a common problem on this model. I had the dealer realign the hood latch in Dec. *there is a small dent right over the passenger side wheel well which can be seen (barely) in the photographs *I had occassional transmission lag between 2nd and 3rd which seems to have been rectified with new upper and lower torque arms just installed by the dealer two weeks ago. *the headlight washer hose on one headlight wiper needs to be fixed. Honestly- can anyone tell me why these exist?? This outstanding Volvo C70 convertible is 10 years old but looks nearly new. It is being sold "as-is" with no warranty given or implied. I also have the car for sale locally so the auction may be ended early for a local buyer. All emailed questions will be answered promptly. |

Volvo working to allow groceries delivered to your car, even when you aren't there
Mon, 24 Feb 2014Volvo cites research showing that 60 percent of online shoppers had problems with their deliveries in 2013, and that missed first deliveries cost the industry roughly one billion euros ($1.37B US) in re-delivery costs, as impetus for its "Roam Delivery Service" that delivers packages to your car. The service uses Volvo On Call and Sensus Connect car-connectivity and telematics apps already installed in vehicles, and a digital key with a timed window of operation.
The car owner is notified if delivery to or pickup from the car would be the best option, which they then have the option to approve or decline. If approved, the position of the vehicle is sent to the delivery driver, as well as a digital key that can open the car. Once the delivery has been made, the owner is notified and the digital key is erased, leaving only a time stamp to record when the car was opened and then locked.
The technology will be shown to the public at the Mobile World Congress later this month. There's a video and a press release below with more on the details.
Next Polestar Volvo sounds great, whatever it is
Fri, 15 Nov 2013Something - we don't know what yet - is coming from Polestar. While we'll be recovering from next week's LA Auto Show and Tokyo Motor Show (and starting to slack off ahead of an extended Thanksgiving weekend), the official tuner of Volvo products has announced plans to unveil its latest creation in less than two weeks.
Based on this video teaser, we can only imagine (and hope) that it's the souped-up Volvo V60 recently caught testing by our spy shooters. The idea of a high-performance Volvo wagon was already enough to get us giddy last month, but the exhaust note in this video is downright captivating. Scroll down to watch the teaser for yourself, and be prepared for some bright blue wagony goodness to be revealed on November 26.
Volvo Pure Tension concept folds solar charging pavilion into trunk
Tue, 16 Jul 2013Even by the 'anything-goes' standards of concept cars, this one is a head-spinner: the "Pure Tension" Volvo V60 Pavilion, commissioned by Volvo Italy and winner of the Pure Volvo Pavilion Design competition. The alien form seen hovering all over the rendered V60 is a pavilion, as in the kind erected for trade shows or outdoor events. Developed by Synthesis Design + Architecture, Buro Happold, and Fabric Images, the pavilion is a flexible mesh structure held in place by a carbon fiber rods.
What's more, the mesh is embedded with photovotaic cells so that the pavilion can absorb energy from the sun or indoor lighting, making it a portable charging station. It can power itself or the crossover, the V60 at the center of it all being a diesel hybrid that plugs straight into the pavilion. When it's time to go, the entire structure can be folded small enough to fit in the trunk of the car.
We're told it will be shown in September in Rome. Even if we never see this particular creation on the streets, it's comfortable proof that our future will eventually be wilder than we can imagine.
