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.

Volvos will brake for bicyclists with new detection technology

Thu, 07 Mar 2013

Anyone who pedals a bicycle knows that one of the biggest dangers to riders is a motorized vehicle - Volvo estimates that nearly 50 percent of all cyclists killed in European traffic have collided with a car. In the United States alone, 618 riders lost their lives in bicycle/motor vehicle crashes in 2010, and the number of injuries surpassed 52,000.
To help drop those numbers, Volvo has just announced Cyclist Detection with full auto brake - a technology that detects and automatically applies a vehicle's brakes when a cyclist swerves in front of a moving car. The basic components of the system include a radar unit integrated into the front grille, a camera fitted in front of the interior rear-view mirror and a central control unit. The radar is tasked with seeing obstacles in front of the vehicle and calculating distance, while the camera is responsible to determine what the object is. The central control unit, with rapid processing capabilities, monitors and evaluates the situation.
The technology, which will be sold bundled with its Pedestrian Detection and called Pedestrian and Cyclist Detection, will automatically apply full braking when both the radar and camera confirm a pedestrian or cyclist are in the immediate path of the vehicle. According to the automaker, the technology will be offered on the Volvo V40, S60, V60, XC60, V70, XC70 and S80 models from mid-May in 2013.

Volvo XC90 First Edition sells out in 47 hours

Fri, 05 Sep 2014

Two days ago, Volvo opened the order books on its completely new 2015 XC90 crossover, and just like that, all of the 1,927 First Edition models were reserved in a scant 47 hours. According to Volvo, most of the vehicles were reserved within one hour of the online ordering site launching, and at its peak, seven cars were being sold each minute.
First Edition models wear a unique Onyx Black exterior, and ride on eight-spoke, 21-inch wheels. Inside, amber nappa leather covers the seats, the dashboard is lined in charcoal leather, and there are walnut inlays throughout the cabin.
Under the hood, the XC90 First Edition can be had with either a four-cylinder Drive-E gasoline or diesel engine (if you live in markets outside the US, of course). The twin-charged T6 petrol model comes with 320 horsepower, and sends its power to the ground via all-wheel drive.

These are the cars with the best and worst depreciation after 5 years

Thu, Nov 19 2020

The average new vehicle sold in America loses nearly half of its initial value after five years of ownership. No surprise there; we all expect that shiny new car to start depreciating as soon as we drive it off the lot. But some vehicles lose value a lot faster than others. According to data provided by iSeeCars.com, trucks and truck-based sport utility vehicles generally hold their value better than other vehicle types, with the Jeep Wrangler — in both four-door Unlimited and standard two-door styles — and Toyota Tacoma sitting at the head of the pack. The Jeep Wrangler Unlimited's average five-year depreciation of 30.9% equals a loss in value of $12,168. That makes Jeep's four-door off-roader the best overall pick for buyers looking to minimize depreciation. The Toyota Tacoma's 32.4% loss in initial value means it loses just $10,496. The smaller dollar amount — the least amount of money lost after five years — indicates that Tacoma buyers pay less than Wrangler Unlimited buyers, on average, when they initially buy the vehicle. The standard two-door Jeep Wrangler is third on the list, depreciating 32.8% after five years and losing $10,824. Click here for a full list of the top 10 vehicles with the least depreciation over five years. On the other side of the depreciation coin, luxury sedans tend to plummet in value at a much faster rate than other vehicle types. The BMW 7 Series leads the losers with a 72.6% drop in value after five years, which equals an alarming $73,686. BMW's slightly smaller 5 Series is next, depreciating 70.1%, or $47,038, over the same period. Number three on the biggest losers list is the Nissan Leaf, the only electric vehicle to appear in the bottom 10. The electric hatchback matches the 5 Series with a 70.1% drop in value, but since it's a much cheaper vehicle, that percentage equals a much smaller $23,470 loss.
