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. |

US could get Chinese Volvos soon, possibly Geely joint-venture subcompact?
Tue, 28 Jan 2014After a little more than three years since Volvo was acquired by China's Geely, it was only a matter of time before products from this marriage started to show up in the US. Although nothing seems to be written in stone, Automotive News is reporting that the US could be getting Chinese-made Volvos sooner rather than later.
In speaking with AN, Volvo CEO Hakan Samuelsson said that Chinese Volvos could be exported to the US "fairly quickly," and while there was no word on any specific models being considered, the article points out that the S60 (shown above) is already being produced locally in China at a Volvo plant. Another possibility is the next-gen V40, which has reportedly received plenty of support from US Volvo dealers. Regardless of which model it is, Samuelsson doesn't seem too worried about a "Made in China" car receiving a negative reaction by US consumers, pointing to all the other Chinese products sold here.
On a global scale, AN is also reporting that Geely is working on a new subcompact platform co-developed with Volvo to compete against cars like the Honda Fit, Ford Fiesta and VW Polo. There is no word as to whether or not this Geely-branded model would be coming to the US, but just last year, we heard that the Chinese automaker is looking to break into the US market by 2016.
