This is an extremely rare vehicle. Factory built in Sweden and imported to the United States by the Swedish Consulate. There are only 2 of these in the U.S. and around 18 in the World. The retail price of the S80 limo is approximately $140,000 USD.

From Wikipedia:

"The current official car of the King of Sweden is a stretched Volvo S80, escorted by the Swedish Security Service in BMW X5, BMW 5-Series and Mercedes-Benz E-Class models. For official occasions like state visits there is an Daimler DS420. There are also a number of different cars in the Royal Mews, which are used on special occasions."

This car has a normal left-side steering wheel and is EPA certified for sale in all 50-states. The limousine is privately owned and used for pleasure in Los Angeles, CA.

---

Mechanically the limousine is in excellent condition, no known problems or defects. The air conditioner is ice-cold. It's been used on every occasion with extreme confidence of its mechanical fitness.

Overall external condition of the limousine is fair. Here is the list of known external defects:

1) 6-8" area of paint bubbling on the right side of the top

2) Tinted windows have various scratches and the back window tinting shows peeling cracks

3) Various plastic pieces in cockpit (frame around the drive light switch) are either missing or not correctly attached.

4) Interior passenger arm-rest on right side is loose and plastic inserts are broken.

5) Left side passenger window (two-seats facing the rear) is off-track and does not slide down correctly.

6) Front right bumper was strained resulting in slight denting under the hood and the wheel cowl plastic is separated. This is the biggest known problem, but existed when the limo was acquired and has been duct taped shut, but needs attention.

7) Externally the car has various missing or broken reflectors, missing plastic accent plastic on edge.

8) The left and right door panels have scraped paint and or areas that are scratched and dented where the limo was incorrectly navigated around tight corners.

9) There are many small areas with paint chips, cracks, or other blemishes that warrant inspection or repair.

10) The front headlights have some interior fogging on one or both sides.

The above repairs and paint condition were quoted approximately $1800 to address. If you wanted to be extremely picky/thorough and fix every last minor problem so the car is absolutely flawless, you would probably want to budget around $3000.

Since it was used for pleasure, mostly in the evening, it was never pursued to fix all the blemishes and external defects. The limo's hosted celebrity friends, business associates, and guests without any real embarrassment of the aforementioned problems.

These are the top luxury cars bought by people entering the segment for the first time

Fri, 25 Jul 2014

Let's say you just got a big promotion at work or the kids are moving out of the house, and you finally have some extra money. You decide to blow it all at once and treat yourself by upgrading your ride. Naturally, you look to a luxury automaker. What do you choose?
Models like the Audi A3 and Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class may be tailor-made to introduce buyers to the premium segment, but a new study finds that they don't garner the highest rates of non-luxury customer conquests. It turns out that a Volvo leads among folks moving up to a premium brand, and it isn't even one that's made anymore, at that.
A recent study by Polk and IHS Automotive looked at what models had the highest rates of buyers upgrading from a non-luxury segment. The information comes from its new vehicle registration data through April 2014. All ten top models boasted conquest rates of over 50 percent, but the Volvo C70 led the field with 68.01 percent of its customers coming from non-premium brands.

Translogic 189: 2015 LA Auto Show

Tue, Nov 24 2015

The LA Auto Show has become known for its green cars and concepts, and 2015 was no exception. Translogic host Jonathon Buckley gets all the details on BMW's 330e plug-in hybrid straight from BMW President of North America Ludwig Willisch. Then we get up-to-date on Honda's latest FCX Clarity hydrogen fuel cell car. We round out our tour with a stop at the Elio Motors booth for a look at their updated, three-wheel P5 concept and a chat with CEO Paul Elio. But first, we jump in a time machine at the Volvo booth to discuss Concept 26, an interpretation of how car interiors might evolve in the era of self-driving cars. "The reason why we talked about it as a time machine [is] because, really, Concept 26 is giving you back something that is so precious," explained Volvo senior director of design Tisha Johnson. "We're letting you delegate driving to the car, so that you can then have that time to yourself." Click here to learn more about our host, Jonathon Buckley.

Volvo agrees to transfer tech to new parent Geely

Tue, 11 Dec 2012

Following the acquisition of Volvo by China's Zhejiang Geely Holding Group in 2010, we definitely saw this news coming. The two companies have signed an agreement that will give Chinese automaker Geely access to key technologies developed by Volvo, and in turn, the deal could help the Swedish automaker lower its production costs.
As a part of the "technological cooperation agreements" signed by both companies, Automotive News China reports that Geely will be able to tap Volvo for three much-needed technologies, including the use of a midsize platform, Volvo's proven safety innovations and interior air quality systems. The latter two technologies are important to improve the crashworthiness of Geely's cars, along with helping isolate vehicle occupants from China's often severe air pollution. The report says that Volvo tech will likely be used on a premium car brand that Geely is expected to create.
Volvo, on the other hand, is to benefit from the "local market exploration experience and cost control experience" of Zhejiang Geely Holding Group, which is technical way of saying that Volvo will be able reduce its costs by tapping into Geely's established supply chain.
