2003 Volvo S40 Base Sedan 4-door 1.9t on 2040-cars
Farmingdale, New Jersey, United States
Condition: This vehicle has been taken care of since i acquired it last May 1, 2013. There was 96,447 miles when I purchased this vehicle. Vehicle currently has 118,778 gentle miles that I personally placed on the vehicle. This vehicle has some dents, dings, and scratches. However, vehicle looks really nice especially after a car wash and waxing. The vehicles drive train works excellent. A fuel efficent 4 cylinder that has a turbo incase you need to get somewhere quickly. The car has great acceleration and sound braking system when necessary. Features: I replaced all four tires recently. Front tires are Falken 195 60/R15 88H, Rear tires are Good Year 195 60/R15 88T. The tires have about 5,000 miles on them. This car is a 2003 and the alignment is slightly off. One can see this by the front tire wear. I kept proper tire pressure in all four tires the entire time I owned this vehicle. Now may be a good time to do a tire rotation. Simply switch the fronts with the rear. You cannot place the rear tires on the opposite side of the car they are on currently. They are special rotation tires and must be kept on that side of the vehicle they were originally installed on. However, you can place them up front being that they have excellent tread. I replaced the ICV valve when i purchased the vehicle, the spark plugs, the coil pack for all 4 cylinders, fuel filter, air filter, thermostat, cooling hose & rear brake pads. There are no chips or cracks in the windshield. The front brake pads are wearing down evenly and will need replacment next 5,000 to 6,000 miles from today. It may make sense to replace the vehicles front & rear brake rotors. The rear rotors brand new not refurbished are $65.00 for the pair. The front rotors are slightly more expensive due to more metal they were around $70.00 or so for the pair. AUTOZONE is the best for anything needed. When they couldnt provide me with a part or generic replacement I would go to Volvo in Wall township. They have a friendly parts desk that can get their hands on anything Volvo. History: This vehcile had two other owners. Owner one sold this vehicle with 74,067 miles on drive train. The second owner decided to trade this vehicle in to MB Motor Sports in Tinton falls NJ with 96,132 miles on the drive train. I then purchased this vehcile with a down payment on May 1, 2013. Every 2,000 miles I consistently changed the vehicles oil with CITGO SUPERGARD synthetic blend 5W 30 oil. Every other oil change I would change the oil filter. I have the proper oil filter wrench for this Volvo 1.9 Litre Motor. The motor runs strong and the vehicle get's great gas mileage. Vehicle shifts strong, in and out of gears, and reverse works smoothly. PLEASE READ FINANCING ATTACHED TO VEHICLE This vehicle currently has financing with Leaders Financial Company (www.leadersfc.com). If buyer decides to purchase vehcile the full sales price must be given to me the seller. At that point I will then deposit funds into checking account. The check may take 2-3 business days to clear into my account. At that point I can pay off the car note with Leaders Financial Company. Once paid in full they will send me a car note pay off, and clear bill of sale vehicle title. I would sign over the vehicles bill of sale/title to the purchaser. From that moment the buyer would officially own title and bill of sale. Clearly they would have to goto motor vehicle to obtain registration, plates, and switch title officially to their name. I will execute a sales contract with buyer explaining how title will be released to buyer once the current lender is paid in full. I will detail the process of title/bill of sale release in the sales contract then sign and date. Buyer could show their attorney this contract and keep one for their files. |

Geely plans to launch hundreds of satellites to guide autonomous cars
Wed, Mar 4 2020BEIJING — China's Zhejiang Geely Holding Group said on Tuesday it was investing 2.27 billion yuan ($326 million) in a new satellite manufacturing plant, where it plans to build low-orbit satellites to provide more accurate data for self-driving cars. Geely, one of China's most internationally-known companies due to its investments in Daimler, Volvo and Proton, is building the facilities in Taizhou, where it has car plants. It aims to produce 500 satellites a year by around 2025, with around 300 highly-skilled staff, it said in a statement. Geely's technology development arm, Geely Technology Group, launched Geespace to research, launch, and operate low-orbit satellites in 2018. Geespace will begin the launch of its commercial low-orbit satellite network by the end of this year, Geely said. Geely said low-orbit satellites would offer high speed internet connectivity, precise navigation, and cloud computing capabilities to cars with autonomous driving technology. Geely, which sold 2.18 million cars last year, is among global automakers from Tesla to Toyota to pursue autonomous driving technologies. It is building low-orbit satellites to meet demand for high-speed connectivity capabilities that can deliver fast software updates. From around 2025, Geely's cars will have more functions to connect to the satellites. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences.

Volvo finds a way to turn body panels into batteries [w/video]
Thu, 17 Oct 2013One of the problems with designing an electric vehicle is figuring out where to fit the battery pack. Volvo - as a part of a European Union research project - is working on a way around this issue by replacing standard parts with lightweight components that double as batteries on both conventional and plug-in vehicles. The image above shows one such piece on a Volvo S80. While looking like nothing more than a carbon fiber plenum cover, the piece is actually a battery pack that can store and supply enough energy for the car's entire 12-volt power system.
The parts are made by sandwiching super capacitors (which can charge faster than standard batteries) in between layers of carbon fiber. They can then be formed to replace numerous body panels such as the decklid, roof or door panels. Volvo says that the replacing the body panels and batteries with these nano batteries can help reduce the vehicle's weight by as much as 15 percent. It has taken more than three years just to design the batteries, so there's no telling when, or if, we'll ever see this technology used on a production vehicle. Scroll down for a video and press release on Volvo's innovative battery technology.
Sweden's Prince Carl Philip to race for Volvo in STCC
Tue, 04 Dec 2012Prince Carl Philip Bernadotte has it good. He is a member of the Swedish Royal Family, he dates a model and he has been voted by Forbes as one of the "20 Hottest Young Royals." If that were not enough, he is a fairly successful racecar driver. The latter has earned him a spot on the Volvo Polestar racing team for the Swedish Touring Car Championship. The prince will be piloting a race-spec S60 in the 2013 STCC campaign.
Starting in 2008, Prince Carl Philip began competing in the Porsche Carrera Cup, where he placed as high as 11th. In 2010, he finished first in the Porsche GT3 Endurance competition, and most recently, he placed fourth in the 2012 Swedish GT GTB.
As his motorsport career up to this point suggests, the prince is quite serious about racing and the STCC is the next step up. According to Prince Carl Philip, "There is no tougher championship in Sweden and at the same time as I have respect for it, it motivates me greatly." You can read more on Prince Carl Philip's upcoming campaign with Polestar in the press release below.
