Up For Sale is a 2001 Volvo XC-70 with 137,775 miles. I will give you a little history of the car. I purchased the XC-70 back in Oct of 2012 for the sum of $2,680.00 from a so called dealer in Pa. named VP Auto Motor's on EBAY, That is for everyone's information. Let's just say they miss led me on the condition of the vehicle, and having paid for a sizable portion of it up front and being that a EBAY sale is in one sense a contract of purchase I stood behind my end and paid the remaining balance of the purchase. Well with that said I have put another $1,200.00 plus dollars in it to get it Md. inspected and road worthy. The vehicle has new brakes, New Battery, New Fog light fixtures, I also had to do some work to the front end / steering something about the struts and link pins to correct the steering. I have all receipts for repairs that were made. Ok, now for the kicker the vehicle still needs some work even though I have driven it over 3000 mile since putting it on the road. The vehicle as when I purchased it has only one key. The vehicle does need some more loving from a mechanic, the airbag light is on and from what I have been told it could be a sensor or a contact that needs to be cleaned under the front seat. I am only selling it shortly after buying it 3 plus months ago because I have purchased another vehicle for my mother to drive being that is what this one was for. Please feel free to ask questions or come and test drive the Volvo as that the purchase of this vehicle Is a as is purchase. I am trying to be as honest as I can about the condition and don't want to screw anyone by listing a false item such as " VP Auto Motor's ". I am willing to deliver / drive the vehicle for free of charge within 25 miles of my place of residents or willing to deliver the vehicle for $2.00 a mile up to Fifty miles from my door to yours. The car is For Sale locally so reserve the rights to cancel this listing early.

Volvo V70 and XC70 and Ocean Race special editions wash ashore ahead of Geneva
Sat, 22 Feb 2014Volvo will unveil the third in its series of new concepts to the 2014 Geneva Motor Show, but it will also bring a flotilla of special editions to the Swiss show. The V70 and XC70 are getting limited-edition models called simply Edition, and the V40, V40 Cross Country, V60 and XC60 will have Volvo Ocean Race Editions.
The Edition models outfit the cars with an extra sprinkling of style. The V70 Edition gets high-gloss black trim on the grille, mirror caps, side window frames and tailgate and rides on silver, 17-inch wheels with high-gloss black 17-inch and 18-inch wheels as options. The XC70 Edition adds some gloss black exterior upgrades too, plus high-gloss black, 18-inch diamond-cut wheels. Both models are swathed in black leather upholstery with cream stitching.
The Volvo Ocean Race Editions celebrate the brand's sponsorship of a 38,739-nautical-mile yacht race that will circumnavigate the world from 2014 to 2015. All of them sport the race logo on the tread plates, front fenders, infotainment display on start-up and special seven-spoke wheels. Inside, there is the choice of black or blonde leather seats with orange stitching. The 60-series cars also sport a map of the race route on the rear load cover.
Jaguar turns down offers to join V8 Supercars, questions AMG, Volvo participation
Thu, 27 Jun 2013Rumors have swirled in recent weeks that Jaguar may be the next manufacturer to join the V8 Supercars racing series, made popular in Australia but now well-known in other parts of the world as well. Sadly, Jag's participation is not to be. In fact, it would be "insane," according to Jaguar Land Rover Asia Pacific Managing Director David Blackhall, for it to accept either of the two offers it has received to bring Jaguar into V8 Supercars.
Not only is Jaguar not interested in entering V8 Supercars, says Blackhall, it also fails to understand the recent entries from AMG and Volvo. "I don't know what it does for AMG to get flogged by a V8 Commodore week after week, but it's their brand, their issue. And the same thing will happen to Volvo to be honest."
Judging by Blackhall's statements to motoring.com.au, after not-so-serious consideration, the automaker decided the monetary commitment it would take to compete for wins would be more than any potential exposure would be worth, despite the fact that Jaguar has a 5.0-liter V8 to go along with what would seem to be a tailor-made rear-wheel-drive chassis. For what it's worth, one offer would have had Jaguar putting its name across an engine made by someone else, an option that was flatly turned down.
