This is a 7-Day NO RESERVE auction for a 1998 Volvo V70XC Cross Country AWD Turbo Wagon!  HIGH BIDDER WINS! 

Rare Third Row Seating!!  Check out the pictures & video!

This Volvo runs & drives extremely well!  You would never guess the mileage by looking or driving this very nice automobile.  This Volvo was traded it at a new-car dealership in NW Ohio and I purchased the Volvo from them.  I have personally driven this vehicle for the last 100 miles and it is very nice!  The inline 5-cylinder turbo engine runs strong with plenty of power.  The automatic transmission shifts smooth with no issues at all.  This Volvo is loaded with all the options like power/heated leather seats, power windows and locks, cruise control, keyless entry, and so much more.  Zero accident history per autocheck!  Mechanically, this Volvo is in good condition.  Engine & Transmission are 100%.  I have not noticed any leaks on the ground where this Volvo has been sitting.  The brakes stop the car smooth and straight.  While driving the steering & suspension components appears to be in good shape - particular buyers may note a little suspension rattle when hitting bumps but still extremely smooth and nothing out of the ordinary for a car of this age/miles.  The 4 matching Michelin tires have TONS of tread remaining and the vehicle drives straight down the road. No vibrations at all when driving.  No driveline noise or vibrations at all.  Turbo spools up with plenty of power.  Overall, this vehicle drives extremely nicely for its age and mileage.  All the power options work like they should including the power seats, sunroof, mirrors, windows, etc.  The automatic climate control works and this Volvo blows air on all blower levels and wherever you want it to (vents, defroster, etc).  The AC is blowing cold, but for full disclosure when I acquired the vehicle it was warm and I recharged it -- it has held up for a week but there may be a small leak somewhere and the a/c compressor is a little noisy when engaged.  The Volvo is equipped with AM/FM/CD/CASSETTE - the radio powers up great and sounds very good.  The check engine light is on (code P0108 - MAP sensor high) but there is no noticeable performance issues.  There are no other dash warning lights illuminated except for the service light comes on for 90 seconds when the vehicle is started - this is a light that comes on at regular intervals just to remind you to service your vehicle (it does NOT indicate malfunction) and can be reset.  The dashboard informational display works and all settings read appropriately.  All of the gauges read properly and there are no abnormal readings. The engine runs smooth with no lack of power at all.   The keyless entry system appears to be working properly with the key fob.  Extremely nice running and driving vehicle!  Cosmetically -- this car looks in excellent shape. The exterior paint is in excellent condition.  There is no visible rust on the body.  All glass is in-tact and in good condition with the exception of a small crack below the sight line in the windshield (see pics).  The alloy wheels are in exceptionally good condition.   The interior is in very extremely nice condition with no rips or major discoloration.  OEM floor mats are included although in used condition.  Check out the pictures - they speak for themselves!  I have tried to capture both the positives and the flaws in those pictures.  There is a minor dent just in front of the passenger side rear wheel in the dog-leg, there is slight cracking on the interior wood grain below the shifter, and some of the leather inserts on the doors are no longer tight, (see pics). These are very minor imperfections that are consistent with the vehicle age.  Overall, this Volvo shows extremely nice and will be a vehicle that you can be proud of!

I have tried my best to represent this vehicle accurately and to the best of my abilities.  Earning and keeping a 100% positive feedback rating is very important to me!  I purchase most of my vehicles as trade-ins from new car dealerships as traded. I test drive each vehicle on the expressway and around town for at least 20 miles, often over 100 miles, and use that experience to represent the vehicle to you on eBay.  Please remember that you are buying a used vehicle and that a certain amount of wear/use/flaws are to be expected on any used vehicle -- including this one.  You are welcome and encouraged to come check out this vehicle for yourself and take it for a test drive before the auction ends.  I have included over 50 pictures and a YouTube video - please check out them out.   Feel free to email/call me (Michael) at 734-717-3653 with specific questions and I will do my best to answer them.

Cars with the worst resale value in 2022

Thu, Nov 10 2022

Car values are all over the map right now. Used vehicles that were worth a small fortune earlier this year are now coming back to Earth, but the new vehicle supply remains tight. Prices are still elevated overall, but some models have seen more severe price drops. Depreciation strikes almost every model, supply constraint or not, though a few vehicles are leading the way. New research from analytics iSeeCars found that a handful of cars depreciated more than 50 percent over five years, with the BMW 7 Series dropping 56.9 percent and an average price cut of $61,923 over that time. The vehicles with the highest depreciation — or worst resale value — over five years: BMW 7 Series: -56.9% Maserati Ghibli: -56.3% Jaguar XF: -54% Infiniti QX80: -52.6% Cadillac Escalade ESV: 52.3% Mercedes-Benz S-Class: 51.9% Lincoln Navigator: -51.9% Audi A6: -51.5% Volvo S90: -51.4% Ford Expedition: -50.7% iSeeCarsÂ’ research showed that midsize trucks, sports cars, and fuel-efficient vehicles were slowest to depreciate over five years, while itÂ’s clear that luxury brands tend to lose value much faster. As iSeeCarsÂ’ Executive Analyst Karl Brauer explained, used buyers donÂ’t value high-end vehiclesÂ’ features as much as the first owners, so resale values tend to be softer. The tech and options that made the cars so expensive and appealing new donÂ’t add the same value on the used market. Read more: Cars with the best resale value Interestingly, electric vehicles also depreciated quite heavily, though they were just short of the abysmal numbers in luxury segments. The Nissan Leaf depreciated most among EVs, dropping by 49.1 percent. The average EV depreciation is 44.2 percent, with the Tesla Model S and Model X sliding in right under the bar at 43.7 and 38.8 percent, respectively. As iSeeCars notes, itÂ’s important to be vigilant when car shopping and not let your emotions win over reason. Shiny new luxury cars look great in the showroom, but you could end up taking a bath when you try selling them a few years later on.

Gimp Pimp and Aqua Volvo at 24 Hours of LeMons | Car Club USA

Tue, Mar 22 2016

Car Club USA heads to Sonoma, CA where the Gimp Pimp Cadillac and Aqua Volvo will take on all the crazy, sub-$500 competition at the 24 Hours of LeMons endurance race. "Over the last 30 years, car racing has gotten extremely serious and extremely expensive and it just seemed like there was a real need to make it accessible again," said LeMons founder Jay Lamm. The result is a series of endurance races across the US and Australia where all you need to join the fun is a junky car and some basic safety equipment. "It's just fun, compared to pro racing," said Wendy Epstein, driver of a 1979 Volvo 242 in bright "Aqua Volvo" livery. "24 Hours of LeMons is a form of racing that is designed to be cheap and easy, and anybody can do it," said Bill Manfroy, driver of the Gimp Pimp, a 1996 Cadillac SLS with some important modifications. "Part of what makes the Gimp Pimp Cadillac so special is that it does have hand controls, so it gives access to people like me that ordinarily get to race." "Which makes it perfect for LeMons." Each Car Club USA episode features a different car club or event from across the US, where passionate owner communities gather to share automotive experiences and embark on incredible adventures. From Main Street cruises to off-road trails, catch all the latest car club activity on Autoblog.

2023 Volvo S60 and V60 get small updates

Mon, Mar 14 2022

The Volvo S60 sedan and V60 wagon have been updated for the 2023 model year, their mid-life refresh. We don't know the specifics of how our U.S.-market models will be updated, a Volvo spokesperson telling Car and Driver that information comes this spring. We can look to Europe for the broad strokes, however, and it appears we won't have to look too long nor too hard. The S60 sedan hasn't changed in front, whereas the V60 gets a revised lower front fascia with slightly wider intakes accented by blades of chrome garnish, and a center intake that's a wee bit taller than on the current model. In back, both cars hide their tailpipes. There will be at least one new wheel option as well, six-spoke jobs cribbing from the aero rims designed for the XC40 Recharge. And that's all we have to say about that.  Inside, Google's Android Automotive infotainment software continues its propagation throughout the Volvo lineup, bringing the same functionality to the 9-inch display that we've sampled in a few other Swedish offerings so far.   We only get the 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine in the United States, aided by 48-volt mild-hybrid (an update for 2022) or plug-in-hybrid electrical assistance depending on trim for the S60, while the V60 wagon — not the lifted V60 Cross Country — is only sold as the Recharge Polestar Engineered in the United States. Don't expect any deviations on the ICE side, but the PHEV trims benefit from a larger battery and more powerful motor.  In Europe, the B3 and B4 trims will enjoy a new seven-speed dual-clutch. We don't expect that gearbox to be headed our way. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.
