This auction is for a 2000 Volvo S80.  I purchased this vehicle in 2007 with just under 80K miles on it and have used it regularly for the past six years.  These transmissions are known to be mediocre at best and this one started shifting rough at around 100K miles.  It made it another 125.7K miles before it finally gave up.  The other day when it happened, it only had reverse and second gear.  The message board said "Service transmission - Urgent"!  It sat for the past two days and I just tested it again, it shifted from 1st gear all the way through 3rd with no problem but wouldn't go into overdrive.  I would consider the transmission to need a total rebuild or replacement.  The motor still runs as strong as it ever has but it does have over 225,000 miles on it - they are a very impressive 6 cylinder.  The interior is in decent shape but the leather shows wear.  I don't believe there are any rips but look at the pictures - what you see is what you get.  The body is in decent shape without any major dents or rust but the clearcoat started peeling off the hood and the top of the front left fender a couple years ago.  I spray painted it which looked good for a while but now it just looks like flat black primer. The tires are in good shape with roughly 20K miles on them.  Please take a good look at the pictures so you know what you're bidding on as this is an as-is auction.  Shipping, or getting the car to wherever you're taking it, is the responsibility of the new owner.  I will be happy to assist as I can to make it easy on you but it is your responsibility.  Please ask all questions prior to bidding.  Thanks for looking.

2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E, Volvo XC40 Recharge score high in IIHS tests

Thu, Apr 22 2021

New electric cars continue their streak of impressive crash test results. The two latest to go through Insurance Institute for Highway Safety testing are the 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E and the 2021 Volvo XC40 Recharge. The former earned a Top Safety Pick award, and the latter picked up the Top Safety Pick+ commendation. Both vehicles got the top "Good" rating in every crash test, as well as the "Superior" rating for vehicle-to-vehicle collision prevention. They deviate when it comes to headlights and vehicle-to-pedestrian collision prevention. Because the Volvo has headlights rated "Good" on all trims, it got that extra "+" on its Top Safety Pick award. The Ford also has high-rated headlights available, but the standard units got the second lowest rating of "Marginal." As for the vehicle-to-pedestrian collision prevention, the Volvo received the second-highest "Advanced" rating, while the Ford was rated "Superior." Among the electric cars IIHS has tested, the Ford and Volvo continue a streak of high scores. The organization has evaluated the Audi E-Tron in both its body styles, as well as the Tesla Model 3, both of which get the Top Safety Pick+ rating. As a result of the XC40 Recharge's test score, Volvo pointed out that it is the only automaker whose entire lineup has received a Top Safety Pick+ rating.

Last Volvo XC90 rolls off assembly line in Gothenburg

Mon, 14 Jul 2014

It was back in 1998 when Volvo set about developing its first SUV. The brief was to build a seven-seater that wasn't "too large", and several design proposals were considered. Three and a half years later Volvo revealed the XC90 at the 2002 Detroit Auto Show and the rest, as they say, is history.
Volvo initially had an eye towards selling 50,000 units per year. It achieved that and then some, selling around 85,000 examples per year between 2004 and 2007. Now, after 12 years and 636,143 examples made - still over that initial target on average despite its lingering age that see it selling just 11,000 units these past few years - the last Volvo XC90 rolled off the assembly line in Gothenburg.
That final example is heading straight to the Volvo Museum adjacent to the factory. But it won't, strictly speaking, be the last XC90. It is the last of that model to be built in Sweden, but a new model is on its way. And the current model will continue to be built in Daqing, China, to be sold locally as the Volvo XC Classic. So if you want to get your hands on a seven-seat Volvo crossover, you'll have to move there. Otherwise you can wait until the end of January 2015 for the new model to begin production.

Tina Fey sits down with Seinfeld for new CiCGC

Thu, 30 Jan 2014

Recently Jerry Seinfeld went out for a videotaped cup of coffee with Jay Leno in a vintage Gmund Porsche. Switching coasts and cars, this time New York's own son returns to his city for a jaunt in a 1967 Volvo 1800S with fellow New Yorker Tina Fey for the latest episode of Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee.
The trip takes them uptown to Cuban coffee shop Floridita in Harlem, then back downtown to a pastry shop. On the way, Jerry calls out a photo shoot for using a fake Porsche, and Fey admits she doesn't have a driver's license. Driving cars, she says, "is like Twitter to me." Which she also doesn't do - she lasted seven tweets in 2009.
You can check out the episode below as they go in search of coffee, the rare guanabana/soursop juice, Jerry's even more elusive product placement and the last Cronut in NYC.
