1999 Volvo S70 Base Sedan 4-door 2.4l on 2040-cars
Montpelier, Vermont, United States
|
This Volvo sedan has been in our family since purchased new in 1999. Key features:
1. This car has NEVER seen a Vermont winter; it has lived its entire life in Connecticut and was not driven during Connecticut's rare snow events. Therefore...there is no rust...anywhere. 2. The car has been well cared for with oil and filter changes every 3000 miles. 3. It has never been smoked in. 4. Within the last 3 months the throttle body and front brakes were replaced. 5. When I brought it to VT 2 weeks ago I had our local Volvo certified mechanic inspect it and repair and replace any wear or maintenance items that he identified. Therefore, the car has a brand new timing belt, serpentine belt, left front control arm, right front sway bar link, and new front brake hoses. Spark plugs have been replaced and the right axle seal was leaking so the axle and the boot were replaced. The tires were rotated and the front end aligned. Total receipts in the last 3 months: $2700.00 6. I have the carfax report available for review confirming that this car is as presented. 7. Additional items: Interior shows well except for driver's seat that has separated at the seam. Front tires have 50% tread wear remaining, rear 25%. There are a few scrapes and dings as expected for a car of this age. There were two separate incidents early in the car's ownership both of which occurred when the car was parked (another car backed into it while parking); the driver's side rear door was dented and the right rear quarter panel was dented. Both were repaired professionally and are virtually invisible. 8. All accessories operate as installed; AC blows ice cold, all power windows work, radio plays, and cruise control functions. The engine and transmisson perform flawlessly. This car should give another 150,000 miles of reliable service assuming normal maintenance. |

Volvo PV444 turns 70
Sun, 31 Aug 2014Volvo has made all manner of vehicles over the course of its long history, including coupes, convertibles, hatchbacks, sedans, wagons and SUVs. But the vehicle that started it all was the PV444.
Or rather, we should say, the PV444 is what re-started it all. Because while it wasn't Volvo's first model, it was the first one it produced after the war. Monday, September 1, will mark 70 years since the PV444 first debuted at the Royal Tennis Hall in Stockholm pictured above, where the company received 148,437 visitors.
That presentation there took place shortly before the end of World War II when the vehicle wasn't even finished yet. A team of 40 engineers and designers were still fine-tuning the final version, but were eager to show the public what it would start building after the last bullet was fired and peace would return to Europe.
IIHS says these are the safest cars of 2013
Wed, 02 Jan 2013The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has revealed its annual list of Top Safety Picks, an award that highlights automobiles it says offer "superior crash protection." A new and still more significant award, the Top Safety Pick+ honor, is given to those vehicles that earn good ratings for occupant protection in four out of five areas of measure. And while some 117 vehicles were given the TSP seal of approval for 2013, just 13 passed muster for TSP+.
To be fair, IIHS only evaluated 29 vehicles with its new testing procedures for TSP+ (we'd expect that the number of qualified cars will rise substantially for 2014). Luxury and Near Luxury midsize cars were the first groups evaluated, followed by midsizers in the Moderately Priced Cars category - unsurprisingly, it's only midsize cars that you'll find among the class this year.
Only two luxury sedans made the list of 13 for 2013: the Acura TL and Volvo S60. The other 11 cars on the list included entries from domestic, Japanese and German car makers: Dodge Avenger, Chrysler 200, Ford Fusion, Honda Accord (sedan and coupe), Kia Optima (but not its close kin, the Hyundai Sonata, strangely), Nissan Altima, Subaru Legacy and Outback, Suzuki Kizashi and the Volkswagen Passat all made the grade.
