05 Volvo S60 R Sedan 4-door 2.5l (6) Six Speed Standard S60r on 2040-cars
East Granby, Connecticut, United States
Our Volvo S60R has been wonderful to us for 4 years, 65K, while we’ve owned it. It has 144K gentle miles. It sports a 6 speed standard transmission, Optional Volvo Blue Tooth, Optional Volvo 350W High Output Amp with Dolby Pro Logic Stereo and Optional Heico Stainless High Output Muffler (VOLVO Dealer installed). My wife has used this for her primary vehicle with no issues of any kind for 4 years. It comes fully loaded with the exception of factory navigation. It sports 330HP (with Heico cat-back Muffler, 300HP without) and is AWD. Included are an aftermarket set of front wet weather mat covers. The car has been garaged every week day while at work and at home.
During the last oil change at the dealer, we were informed the right Tie-rod end needs to be replaced. Price is firm so please look elsewhere if you can’t afford to buy. This is a rare find for a S60R with a 6 Speed. Many more miles and joy left in our Volvo. Thank you and please remember to ask all questions before buying. A $200 NON REFUNDABLE deposit due immediately via PayPal with the final sale in cash must be done by this weekend ending 8/3/2014. If not sold before this Thursday, our car will be used as a trade in. This is listed locally and may be removed for any reason.
We are 5 miles from the Bradley International Airport in Connecticut and can pickup from the airport this weekend if need be.
...something to note about the S60R...It has an onboard computer that monitors things like avg. speed and avg. mpg. We regularly get 24-25 mpg. average and 27-28 when on highway only - NOT the 19/23 KBB reports. |

Next Volvo XC90 design teased
Thu, 29 Aug 2013When Volvo took the wraps off its Concept Coupe yesterday, the Swedish automaker said that while "the all-new XC90 is an entirely different type of car, you will recognize the connection instantly when it is revealed next year." We raised our eyebrows at this upon first read, but after seeing these photos, posted on Feber.se, Volvo certainly wasn't joking.
During a press conference where the Concept Coupe debuted, teaser images of the next XC90 were shown, and the connection between it and the conceptual two-door are obvious. The long, T-shaped lighting elements in the slim headlamps are certainly the most noticeable tie between the two vehicles, but the angular lower fascia openings seen here can also be found quite prominently on the Concept Coupe.
Feber.se also has a few images showing the new taillamp and interior designs of the XC90, as well. And not surprisingly, those two facets of the new crossover's DNA are also surprisingly close to the elements found on the Concept Coupe. It's interesting to see how the concept's C-shaped taillamps have been massaged for the more upright design of the XC90's rump, and inside the cabin, it appears Volvo is serious about this vertically oriented infotainment display.
Volvo's plan for China: sell them on the clean air inside the car
Thu, 24 Oct 2013Large Chinese cities aren't known for having clean air. Just this week, the Chinese city of Harbin filled with record levels of smog after starting the city's coal-fired heating system, according to CNN. But Li Shufu, the chairman of Geely, Volvo's parent company, says the automaker's astute attention to cabin comfort in areas such as air filtration is a selling point for the Swedish automaker in China, Forbes reports.
Shufu says when he is inside a Volvo, he feels like he's in Northern Europe, but when the door is opened, he feels like he's in Beijing. The chairman made the remarks at the fourth annual Global Auto Forum (GAF) in China (which also happened to be attended by Alan Mulally, CEO of Ford, which was Volvo's owner until 2010), where he emphasized Geely's hands-off approach to managing Volvo, saying, "Geely and Volvo are brothers, not father and son."
While good filtration contributes to cabin comfort, the way we see it, Shufu also is allowing Volvo to play to its most well-known strength: safety. Smog protection via air filtration might not seem like the most important safety feature for a car in the US (unless you live in Los Angeles), but when you consider that Harbin's level of fine particles was up to 30 times higher than the World Health Organization's recommended standard on Tuesday, we'd think twice about that. Fine particles, which are 2.5 micrometers in diameter or less, are considered to be the most harmful to health.
Hot rod tractor stars in Swedish version of Farmkhana
Mon, 08 Sep 2014The Nordic countries are known for their beautiful fjords, blonde-haired populace and bitter cold for a good portion of the year. The hours spent indoors during the dark, cold season apparently gives a lot of time for some crazy brainstorming. Tire store chain Vianor is highlighting the Traktor Terror in a new video. If Ken Block is the master of Gymkhana, then these guys know all about Farmkhana in their custom, turbocharged tractor.
According to the YouTube description from Vianor, the tractor is a 1956 Volvo BM Terrier with an added roll cage, adjustable front suspension and extended frame. The engine is thoroughly Swedish, and it's based on a Volvo 940 Turbo with a Volvo 240 head and Volvo 740 intercooler. However, it uses a Saab turbo Prospark ignition and fuel system. All told, the setup is claimed to make 225 horsepower and is capable of a top speed of 60 miles per hour.
That's not crazy power, but this tractor can certainly put it down. The farm machine has no problem smoking those big rear wheels and drifts easily.... although, it may be a tiny little bit unstable (hence the roll cage). If nothing else, this looks like the world's most fun way to be a farmer, that's for sure.
