hi and thnx . this is another great find, cool car and looks every bit a great buy. VOLVO XC 70 AWD, auto, 5 cylinder, turbo, leather, roof, more. I have known since I was a kid Volvos were tough as nails cars, my dad had a P1800 coupe!! 240's ruled, and v70's carried on. but, this car was never tested too hard. it has higher than average miles, but I dare you to show me where and how. this is one of the cleanest and prettiest Volvo wagons I have had the pleasure to own and drive.
engine purrs, tranny shifts out great, turbo grabs, car steers true, stops with confidence, drives like a dream. around town or blasting down the highway to your next weekend getaway, simply a pleasure to be in and seen in. no issues on the road.
interior is way above average, factory correct stereo, full gauges, moonroof, power seats, horn, wipers, lights, gauges, everything full function. body panels are straight and bright, nice paint, no rust, rot, damage, dings or scratches. on top and underneath. please see all photos. great car from a nice home. this was a local, new car,dealer trade-in. please see all shots, I took every good and bad shot I could.
but, it's an older car with high miles. please, have no fear, but be aware that the tires show wear, normal and even, but the two front tires should be replaced within 5000 miles. there is only one key and remote, rubber floor mats are included, but the fabric mats are gone. there is a slight exhaust noise coming from the muffler or the flex pipe, it needs to be looked at. if I can get to it, fine, otherwise it will be up to you. it is likely the flex pipe and needs a simple patch up. this does not deter from the drive or the ride, and it is not very loud at all. anyway, I do what I can and the car sells for what you want.
I have had more than my fair share of V70's wagons. my best was a 98 FWD, stone white with grey vinyl, great car for 4 years and we had 268000 miles when it got totaled back in 2009. I will never forget, I got a check for $5891 ~!~
anyway, car is as shown and at my home. please feel free to call, email or just come by. take a drive or take it home, ready to go. thank you.

Subprime financing on the rise in new car sales, leasing too
Fri, 07 Dec 2012We all remember the financial crisis that began several years back. At its core was a splurge of subprime lending for housing loans. The housing bubble burst, triggering a collapse of the mortgage-backed securities market. Apparently, those types of loans still exist in the automotive industry, and the market share for these types of "nonprime, subprime, and deep subprime," loans has grown 13.6 percent compared to the third quarter a year ago.
According to an Automotive News report, high-risk lending expanded to 24.8 percent of total loans in Q3, up from 21.9 percent for this time last year. As this level increased, average credit scores of borrowers dropped to 755, down from 763 a year ago. In that time, the average financing amount increased $90 per vehicle, to $25,963.
At 818, Volvo maintains the highest per-owner credit score, while Mitsubishi has the lowest, at 694. The highest rate of borrowers was at Toyota, with 14 percent of the market, followed by Ford with 13.1 percent and Chevrolet at 11.1.
2015.5 Volvo S60 and V60 Polestar [w/video]
Thu, 01 May 2014Polestar Performance has been around since 1996, but until recently, it only did two things: manage Volvo motorsports operations and run a specialist consumer-facing side that built concept cars and boosted Volvo's turbocharged production cars by 15 to 60 horsepower. Five years ago, it fulfilled its long-held desire to engineer an actual production car, first creating the C30 Polestar Performance Concept, a showcar that led to the C30 Polestar Limited Edition.
That foray led to the berserker, 508-horsepower 2013 S60 Polestar Concept that Auto Motor und Sport called "a hard slap in the face to the Germans," and that model led to the limited-edition S60 Polestar production car just for Australia, a car reviewers swooned for, with one comparing its chassis finesse to the Ferrari 458 Italia.
All of which is to say, Polestar has a good start for a motorsports and tuning company to make good on its production car dreams. The 2015 Volvo S60 Polestar and V60 Polestar keep that momentum going, and beautifully at that.
Junkyard Gem: 1976 Volvo 244 DL
Sun, Sep 1 2024Volvo did well enough selling the PV444/544, Amazon and 140 in the United States, but it was the Volvo 200 Series that really launched Goteborg iron into the American big time. Introduced here as a 1975 model, the 200 stayed in production for nearly two full decades and remains the most instantly recognizable Swedish car ever made. Here's an early-production 244, found in a Denver-area car graveyard not long ago. The 200 Series could be considered an update of the late-1960s-vintage 140 Series, since it's essentially the same car from the A pillars back. The main difference between the two is the MacPherson strut front suspension in the 200 Series. Volvo went through several naming systems for U.S.-market 200 Series cars over the decades, with the initial one being the easiest to decipher: a three-digit number followed by a two-character trim-level designation. The first digit in the number represents the series, the second represents the number of engine cylinders and the third the number of doors. There were six-cylinder 262s, 264s and 265s sold in the United States from 1976 through 1981, powered by the same PRV V6 engine that went into the DeLorean DMC-12, so it's incorrect to refer to all 200 Series Volvos as 240s. This car is the best-selling member of the 200 family, with a four-cylinder engine and four doors. This is a fuel-injected 2.1-liter SOHC straight-four, rated at 98 horsepower and 110 pound-feet; the 1975 240s received the 2.0-liter pushrod engine from the 140. There were two transmissions available in the 1976 240s: a four-speed manual or a three-speed automatic. This car has the automatic. Even thought it's a base DL model, this car's first owner paid an extra $456 for air conditioning (about $2,580 in 2024 dollars), on top of the $500 premium for the automatic transmission ($2,829 after inflation). That pushed the cost for the car up to $7,551, or $42,717 in today's money. You could get a swanky new 1976 Buick Electra Limited four-door hardtop for just $6,852, but those sensible Volvo buyers knew it was worth paying a premium for genuine Scandinavian safety and build quality. European-market headlights were strictly forbjuden on American roads during the early Malaise Era, according to federal safety regulations, so Volvo had to install these unsightly sealed-beam rigs on their cars here.
