Up for bidding is my 1998 Volvo S90 sedan in silver. Arguably one of the best Volvo models ever made, this was the last model year for this series.

This one’s clock is at just under 167k original, actual miles. With the 2.9L bulletproof straight 6 engine, it’s barely broken in! The previous owner's parents bought it certified pre-owned from MAG Volvo in Dublin, Ohio, then later passed it on to him and his wife who recently downgraded to a minivan due to kids. That makes it over a decade of staying within one family.

Options on this vehicle: premium sound system (AM/FM/CD/Cassette), full gray leather interior, power sunroof, front + side airbags, power windows/seats/locks/mirrors, cruise, alloy wheels, ABS, winter and sport transmission modes, and much, much more.

Clean, above average condition overall- body and undercarriage is clean and the original paint shines up nice. Very small rust spot above rear passenger wheel, other than that is rust free! Leather interior is in good shape.

Cruise, sunroof, power windows, lights, switches, etc. all work perfect. Runs great, rides smooth and drives straight down the road, exhaust is quiet, no leaks or weird noises. Automatic transmission shifts smoothly. No warning lights on! A/C blows ice cold- summer is around the corner!  Two things that aren't working: heated seats and outdoor temperature display (shows -188°.) Keep in mind this is a used car and has a scratch or ding here and there which you can see in the pictures- having said that, this car is mechanically and cosmetically in nice shape for its age!

New tires and newer battery are installed. New lower ball joints and alignment. Oil freshly changed with Valvoline Maxlife synthetic blend 10w30. Timing belt and water pump were done at 140k. Brakes have plenty of meat left on them and stop the car well. Suspension handles fantastic, especially on curvy roads with the rear wheel drive. I have been driving this car regularly for the past few weeks just to make sure there is nothing else that needs attention, and she has performed great! Original manuals, radio code and both sets of keys included- good to go for its new driver!

I have attached 46 pictures in an imgur album. If you would like a picture of something more up close, feel free to ask and I’ll take it for you. Pictures here: http://imgur.com/a/RBdKq

This vehicle is located in Central Ohio just east of Columbus. If you’d like to come take a look at it or bring your mechanic before bidding, please feel free to give me a call! My # is 7 four zero - 6 one zero - zero zero 2 three. Please complete all inspections BEFORE bidding, as if you are the winning bidder, you’ve bought the car. Thanks!

If you are the winning bidder, congratulations, this Volvo is yours! Please send a $250 nonrefundable deposit via PayPal within 48 hours, with the remainder due via cash or direct bank wire transfer within 14 days. Can arrange to ship or pick you up at CMH airport if needed. I may also be able to deliver depending on the circumstances. I am a private owner and not a dealer like many sellers here on eBay, so there will be no surprise doc fees.

Thanks for looking!

 

ATTENTION BIDDERS WITH LESS THAN 5 FEEDBACK: Please give me a call before putting in a bid on the car so that I know you are serious.  If you fail to do this I will unfortunately have to cancel your bid. I appreciate everyone’s understanding. Thank you!

2021 Volvo XC40 Review | What's new, pricing, where it's made, pictures

Wed, May 5 2021

Most subcompact luxury models feel a bit like cheap knockoffs of their bigger, pricier brand mates. The 2021 Volvo XC40, by contrast, is a break from the Volvo norm in a good way. It rides on a different platform from other Volvos, resulting in a small SUV that's a bit more playful to drive, but still possessing the solid, refined feeling one expects from the brand. Its design is more utilitarian and youthful, eschewing luxury materials like chrome and wood in favor of elements like contrasting roofs and more vibrant colors (you can get orange carpet!). Importantly, it's also one of the larger, more versatile vehicles in the segment and provides more features for the money. Basically, it's a desirable vehicle to buy on its own merits in a segment that often feels like you got it cause you couldn't afford something pricier.   And for 2021, it stands out from the crowd even more thanks to the addition of the XC40 Recharge all-electric model. Admittedly, its 208-mile range and overall efficiency are modest, but there are so few alternatives that it still merits consideration, especially for those who intend to stay closer to home. What's new for 2021? The XC40 gets some minor feature content changes, but the big news is the addition of the XC40 Recharge all-electric model (it was supposed to arrive last year). Besides its powertrain, the Recharge gets subtle styling differences and the same Android Automotive tech interface found in the Polestar 2. What's the XC40 interior and in-car technology like? Volvo’s interiors are very tidy and architectural in terms of design, and the XC40 is no exception even if its specific design diverges from the 60 and 90 series norm. ItÂ’s pleasingly simple, using nice materials, comfort and conservative modernism as its foundation. Leather is even standard, though we would like to see an alternative provided, such as the beautiful woven textiles found in Volvos' other cars. Besides its design, one of the ways the XC40 differs from its siblings (and indeed its competitors as well) is its clever center console design. It features numerous large, grippy bins to store, secure and charge devices, plus useful cupholders and a sizable under-armrest bin. There's even a little compartment specifically designed to act as a garbage can. Clearly lots of care and thought went into the XC40. ThereÂ’s a lot of tech baked right in, too, from the standard vertically oriented infotainment screen to the digital instrument panel.

European new car sales drop nearly 8% in first half of 2019

Thu, Jul 18 2019

PARIS — European car sales dropped 7.9% in June, led by bigger declines for Nissan, Volvo and Fiat Chrysler (FCA), according to industry data published on Wednesday. Registrations fell to 1.49 million cars last month from 1.62 million a year earlier across the European Union and EFTA countries, the Brussels-based Association of European Carmakers said in a statement. Calendar effects resulted in two fewer sales days in most markets, accentuating the decline. Registrations for the first half closed 3.1% lower, ACEA said. For European carmakers, weakening demand at home compounds the pressure from a sharper contraction in China and emerging markets that may yet bring more profit warnings. NissanÂ’s aging model lineup contributed to a 26.6% June sales slump while Volvo Cars, owned by ChinaÂ’s Geely, saw deliveries tumble 21.7%. Registrations also fell 13.5% last month at FCA, 10.1% at BMW, 9.6% at Volkswagen Group and 8.2% for both Mercedes parent Daimler and FranceÂ’s PSA Group. The Peugeot makerÂ’s domestic rival Renault suffered less, posting a 3.9% decline. By the Numbers BMW Chrysler Fiat Nissan Volkswagen Volvo Peugeot Renault

2022 Volvo XC60 Recharge First Drive Review | Pumping up the electric range

Thu, Mar 24 2022

PALM SPRINGS, Calif — It may not look like it on the outside, but the 2022 Volvo XC60 Recharge is a substantially updated plug-in hybrid SUV. In fact, the entire XC60 line is refreshed for the 2022 model year, but weÂ’re going to zero in on the Recharge PHEV.  Volvo let us spend a day behind the wheel of the newly-announced “extended range” Recharge model in sunny California, and we came away with far more feelings than expected from this Swedish crossover. Just so everybody is on the same page, the “extended range” Recharge represents a mid-model-year refresh of the XC60 Recharge. There were 2022 model year XC60 Recharge models sold prior to today that featured the same electric hardware as prior model years, and therefore featured the old EPA-estimated electric range of 19 miles on a full charge. The “extended range” model that we drove bumps that all the way up to 36 miles, nearly doubling the previous range. Volvo says that these new “extended range” models are the ones shipping to dealers now, not the older model. This is definitely something to be aware of in later years should you find a used 2022 XC60. So, how has Volvo found this much extra range? The big difference is in the battery pack, going from an 11.6-kilowatt-hour pack to an 18.8-kWh pack. Volvo managed to package a third layer of cells into the pack that it didnÂ’t have before, and it did so in the same space as before — it continues to run along the carÂ’s spine in the center tunnel area. Volvo claims that this more energy-dense battery pack will take 5-8 hours to charge when hooked up to a 240V power source, so you should easily get a full charge by leaving it plugged in overnight, assuming you have the applicable charging hardware.  This new battery pack is paired with a totally revamped powertrain setup. The layout is the same as before. That means there is an electric motor positioned on the rear axle that drives the rear wheels and a gasoline engine in front that exclusively powers the front wheels, thereby giving the XC60 Recharge all-wheel drive. To our delight, both the electric motor and the gasoline engine are new this year. The new rear electric motor represents a big power boost, with 143 horsepower greatly surpassing the old motorÂ’s 87 horsepower. Ultimately, this means that the XC60 Recharge is now significantly more enjoyable to drive in its purely electric mode (aptly named “Pure”).
