Volvo 1969 1800 S, Restored, Overdrive New Bmw Heated Leather Seats Nice Car on 2040-cars
Medford, Oregon, United States
|
I am reducing my sports car collection and therefor selling my restored 1969 Volvo 1800S sports coupe. It has recently been restored with many new parts including engine rebuild by prior owner. It was repainted in Oakland Raider colors by the prior owner a Raider Fan. She spend a lot of money on the restoration to make this a desirable driving Volvo that should increase in value over time. It has twin Carbs and is much more user friendly that the later injected model. It has the smaller desireable chrome bumpers, great working overdrive and new brakes and running gear. It was not a full body off restoration but rather "ground up" hence it is not a #1 car but I rate it as a #2 clean but not prestine.
We did not like the old Volvo seats and had access to two newer BMW coupe, leather heated power seats which we installed. I would feel comfortable driving this Volvo most anywhere but is you want to trailer her I a compact two wheel car trailer that fits her nicely and will sell it with the car for $900 over the auction price. We have set a very reasonable reserve and it should be met. So bid to own. If you have less than 10 positive ratings please don't bid without contaction me for approval. You may see the Volve and a test drive and inspection is encouraged. As with all used vehicles it is sold as is here in Medford, Oregon. I will help shipping if desired. If you have questions please email me at whf2929@aol.com or call me at 541 944 2929 and I will try to answer them. Thanks for looking and bidding. It is for sale. I am approaching 80 and sports cars are too hard to enter with this stoved up body. On Mar-02-14 at 11:46:36 PST, seller added the following information: Just read where a 1969 Volvo 1800S set the Worlds record to mileage by one owner cars, 3 Million Miles and still counting. Reliable? you betcha |

See Volvo's integration of Apple CarPlay in action
Mon, 03 Mar 2014Apple unveiled its new CarPlay touchscreen infotainment system earlier today, and Volvo has just released a video showing the system in action. The Cupertino tech giant is expected to announce partnerships with Ferrari and Mercedes-Benz to license CarPlay, as well, at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show and will be working with even more manufacturers in the future.
The system pairs the driver's iPhone with the car's infotainment system and seamlessly allows them use the smart phone's functions and, at least in Volvo's demonstration, the car's climate control and seat heating systems. According to the video, the new system will be available "in the coming generation Volvo cars," which likely means the upcoming, next-generation Volvo XC90.
However, the system will not work universally. Apple will add functionality through an update to iOS 7 in the future for the iPhone 5, 5C and 5S. At launch other devices won't be supported. Scroll down to watch CarPlay work. We are expecting more details to emerge on the new infotainment system when the Swiss show opens tomorrow.
Volvo's plan for China: sell them on the clean air inside the car
Thu, 24 Oct 2013Large Chinese cities aren't known for having clean air. Just this week, the Chinese city of Harbin filled with record levels of smog after starting the city's coal-fired heating system, according to CNN. But Li Shufu, the chairman of Geely, Volvo's parent company, says the automaker's astute attention to cabin comfort in areas such as air filtration is a selling point for the Swedish automaker in China, Forbes reports.
Shufu says when he is inside a Volvo, he feels like he's in Northern Europe, but when the door is opened, he feels like he's in Beijing. The chairman made the remarks at the fourth annual Global Auto Forum (GAF) in China (which also happened to be attended by Alan Mulally, CEO of Ford, which was Volvo's owner until 2010), where he emphasized Geely's hands-off approach to managing Volvo, saying, "Geely and Volvo are brothers, not father and son."
While good filtration contributes to cabin comfort, the way we see it, Shufu also is allowing Volvo to play to its most well-known strength: safety. Smog protection via air filtration might not seem like the most important safety feature for a car in the US (unless you live in Los Angeles), but when you consider that Harbin's level of fine particles was up to 30 times higher than the World Health Organization's recommended standard on Tuesday, we'd think twice about that. Fine particles, which are 2.5 micrometers in diameter or less, are considered to be the most harmful to health.
Volvo confirms V60 Sportswagon engine lineup for US
Fri, 13 Sep 2013
In addition to revamping its entire 2014 lineup, Volvo has already promised us that we'll be getting the V60 wagon early next year, but now the Swedish automaker has confirmed that sexy wagon will go on sale in January. If that's not good enough for you diehard station wagon models, there's even better news: An available R-Design model will be the "fastest and most powerful wagon in Volvo history."
The V60 R-Design will have a turbocharged inline six-cylinder engine under the hood producing 325 horsepower and 354 pound-feet of torque. Other engines available in the wagon will include the company's well-regarded turbo inline-five along with a new turbo inline-four wearing the Drive-E name. Volvo says Drive-E can "offer the opportunity" to add electrification, but there's no word as to whether or not the US will receive a V60 plug-in model. Also not yet released are fuel economy, vehicle specs and pricing. More information about the V60 and its powertrains are available in the official press release posted below.
