Yes I know they didn't make a C70R but if they did this is what it would have been. I have worked at Volvo dealer for over ten years so all the upgrades were done right and work 100%. This car has been my daily driver for over 2 years and I don't want to see it go but a house is more important than a toy right now and I have to sell it. When I purchased it it was a none stock 2.3 turbo manual transmission car. I will try to remember everything I have done to it but I will prob forget a few things because of how much time and effort has gone into this car. Last winter I did all the upgrades to the car in about a months time. First off I put a 2.5 S60R engine with 104k and a brand new Volvo S60R turbocharger. At this time I also replaced all the engine seals gaskets thermostat hoses water pump breather system plugs timing belt kit serpentine belt a new a/c compressor new Volvo turbo single mass flywheel with a new 850R clutch and throughout bearing new axle seals all new fluids and anything else that needed replacing was done. It also has brand new engine engine mounts all the way around and an IPD upper and lower polly torque mount. I also installed a turbo back custom made 3" exhaust. Yes full 3" not the usual 2.5" catback. I also installed the new four piston Brembo brakes pads and new 330 MM S60R rotors. I also bought a set of brand new Volvo 17" Pegasus rims and had them painted gun metal grey. I also installed Bilstein HD struts on all four corners with rare Apex springs with a 1.6 drop on all fours. I also put in a Ipd rear sway bar to give it some oversteer. I don't have the front bar. At that time I also put in all new suspension mounts sway bar end links and rear trailing arm links. I also replaced the front control arms and inner and outer tie rods. I also put in the volcano interior that I stumbled upon in a random junk yard. They only made this interior in 2004 and it is extremely rare! I also I stalled a V70R blue instrument cluster. The mileage is correct because I only swapped the blue faceplate into my original cluster. I also added the Kenwood DNX 9140 navigation Bluetooth iPod head unit. I also added the surround speaker with its own amp. Yes the head unit supports 5.1 Dolby surround. I also added a Kenwood 1000watt amp for the upgraded Boston acoustic slim mount Subwoofers installed in their stock locations. As you already know there is a stock 400 watt alpine amp that powers the rest of the midrange speakers stock from the factory. I also put Dynomat on the entire floor because the heater core blew up and soaked the original padding. Yea i replaced the heater core with a brand new Volvo part. I also installed a brand new Volvo V70R front bumper fogs and grilles. I even took the fogs apart to paint the inner bezels black to match the upgraded headlight housings. Both the fogs and low beam headlights are xenon gas discharge lights. As I have been driving this car daily I have addresses every problem that has come up immediately so there is a lot of things I have fixed that I forgot about over the past few years. Every electric option works 100% windows heated seats lighting convertible top ect... The windows have a 5% tint and the tail lights and marker lights have been sprayed with tint then clearcoated and wet sanded to give it the shiny finish. The body does have its dings and scratches but no major problems or body damage. Although the convertible top works flawlessly it does show signs of age. The back window had to be glued in and there are a few wear patches on the canvas surface. The top does not leak and the weather stripping is good. I did all this to the car when it had 148K and it now has 178K. This is mostly highway miles because of my 100 mile daily comute and frequent trips to vermont and new hampshire. I just replaced the front pads last month and turned the rotors. Please email me with any questions or if you want to see the car in person.

This Volvo truck is for the birds... literally

Fri, 16 Nov 2012

If you were mentally scarred by the Alfred Hitchcock thriller The Birds, you may not want to watch this video. For everyone else, this is a rather perplexing event. It appears that thousands of pigeons are released from a Volvo truck at the command of a whistle. It looks visually stunning, but for what purpose? Well, we're not entirely sure, but it looks to be the simultaneous release at the start of a major pigeon race.
Now, we don't suspect that Volvo has eschewed its self-titled Volvo Ocean Race for a more avian-inspired competition. We're also not quite sure where this competition is being held, but it may be an annual event, as we also found a similar video with a different MAN rig on YouTube that was posted in 2011. but if you have even the slightest case of Ornithophobia, you best steer clear of this feathered mob. Otherwise, check out the video of this massive flock on the move in the video below. We've even thrown in a video of the gas station scene from Hitchcock's 1963 classic to get you in the mood.

Tony Nicolosi confirmed as Volvo's North American CEO

Tue, 14 Jan 2014

This past October, John Maloney stepped down from his post as CEO at Volvo Cars North America. In his place, the Swedish automaker tentatively promoted Tony Nicolosi, who had until then served as head of Volvo Car Financial Services. The appointment was reportedly temporary, giving Nicolosi the title of acting CEO. But according to Automotive News, his position has now been confirmed for the long run.
Although Volvo has yet to announce a new director for its financial arm, Nicolosi says they have found the right person and will announce sometime between now and the National Automobile Dealers Association convention, set to take place later this month in New Orleans.
Last month, Volvo also announced that its global communications chief Bodil Eriksson is moving from the home office in Gothenburg to the North American office in Rockleigh, New Jersey. Anders Kärrberg has been promoted from the government affairs post to take Eriksson's place.

Recharge Wrap-up: 10-year sentence for biodiesel fraudsters, overhead fast charging EV buses in Luxembourg

Thu, Nov 10 2016

Toyota will use addressable TV advertising to target potential Prius Prime customers. By choosing to advertise in households with specific attributes, Toyota hopes to grab the attention of buyers who "see their vehicle as an extension of their consumption of advanced technology," according to Toyota Motors Sales media manager Lisa McQueen. The ad depicts a person who is skeptical of various inventions throughout history until he finds himself inside the Prius Prime. Hyundai has also used addressable TV ads for its Genesis brand. Read more at Automotive News. Two Florida men have each been sentenced to over 10 years in prison for biodiesel credit fraud. Thomas Davanzo and Robert Fedyna of Gen-X Energy Group and its subsidiary Southern Resources and Commodities were convicted of buying fuel that had already been sold with Renewable Identification Numbers, then fraudulently claiming more credits on that fuel. The scheme raked in more than $46 million, mostly in selling the fraudulent credits. Critics of the Renewable Fuel Standard point to incidents like this as a reason to oppose the program. Read more from Reuters. Volvo electric buses in Luxembourg will use Heliox Fast Charge systems. Public transport operator Sales-Lentz has ordered three of the Heliox systems that will charge the buses using pantograph (overhead wire) contacts. The chargers will be placed at end-of-route stops for opportunistic charging of the transport agency's four Volvo 7900 electric buses. The 450-kW, Wi-Fi-enabled OppCharge system automatically connects the charger to contact plates on the roofs of the vehicles, charging them in three to six minutes. Read more at Green Car Congress.
