I am a Volvo tech and I'm selling a dependable 1998 Volvo v70 R AWD rare w/ every option, I purchased this silver (always looks clean) wagon from a customer of mine two years ago he took great care of it and kept it well maintained. If you are looking for a Volvo wagon this is the last real Volvo after 1998 Volvo switched over to a electronic throttle body on there engines that had many issues which caused Volvo to put out a recall on the throttle body, plus the ignition system was switched over from a distributor to coil over plug which crack all the time and cause misfire issues, plus post 98 Volvos have many electronic control modules which are expensive to repair when they go bad I repeat when they go bad not if they go bad, 1998 was also a good year for Volvo transmissions most trans last about 180k post 98 I have replaced many transmissions, I have owned many Volvos but 1998 and prior years were very dependable, you don't have to take my word on this but do yourself a favor and go online and read posts on the 98 and prior Volvos compared to post 98 models. The KBB value is $6200. I recently replaced many parts on the R here is a list of the repairs, new rear brake pads and rotors, new front brake pads, radiator fan, ignition coil, remanufactured abs module, coolant hoses radiator is a year old, lower right engine mount, p/s rack, inner and outer tie rods, transmission lines, front struts upper bushings(spring seats), front sway bar links, a/c lines, evac and recharged a/c, battery. I replaced many of the parts because I came across great discounted parts (oem). Timing belt has two years or 30k left, I have replaced all the fluids, four wheel alignment, the tires have about 80% life they are Michelins directional tires (great in rain and quiet), the transmission was replaced at 65k w/ a oem trans not a rebuilt (trans line was torn and leaked out atf and was ran low on fluid) and shifts properly. The brakes perform properly no squeaks, or vibrations, the suspension is tight there is no loose play in any of components NO fluid leaks, a/c blows cold, heat blows hot, premium sound system oem. Everything works in and out of the Volvo no surprises every switch, bulb, solenoid. The rear windows are tinted and keep the interior cool on hot days, the interior is in great shape leather and suede in good condition normal wear and tear no rips or wholes except for the rear cargo area the carpet is warn (used w/o a rubber mat) a mat will cover the area (see pic), third row seating, dog cargo net, the body is in great shape no prior accidents (CLEAN CARFAX) normal wear and tear a couple small dents but the body is still pretty straight for being a 1998 vehicle, there is a spot of surface rust only on the rear left wheel panel (see pic) I was quoted $175 for repair no rust anywhere else, I would give the body a 8 out of 10, the paint still shines like new. I have drove this R to Orlando and Denver in the past year w/ no issues. PLEASE EMAIL W/ ANY QUESTIONS

2015 Volvo S60 T6 Drive-E [w/video]
Tue, 08 Oct 2013The Swedes Bend Sixes And Fives Into Fours
With government agency pressures mounting, the auto industry's latest engine and powertrain trends invariably include the cobbling of heretofore eight-cylinder models into charged (either turbo- or super-) six-cylinder models, six-cylinders into charged four-cylinders and so on. And then there's the mating of these downsized engines to fuel-saving automatic transmissions with ratio counts previously reserved for bicycles and semi trucks. Volvo can at last follow suit with the best of Germany and Japan thanks in great part to an $11-billion multi-year investment by its Chinese owners, Geely.
After we survived the recent Frankfurt Motor Show marathon of news and reveals (chief among said bits being the stunning Volvo Concept Coupe), we were escorted by the Swedish automaker to the far less frenetic air of southern France to explore the most significant step yet in the company's new life. Volvo's entire movement of new tech is referred to as Drive-E, and it includes these all-new four-cylinder engines we just tested, a new modular architecture called Scalable Product Architecture (SPA) that will first be found under the next-generation XC90, along with a host of other onboard advancements. Think of it as a Scandinavia's version of Mazda Skyactiv, a total-systems approach to developing more efficient yet more sporting new models.
Volvo fires up S60 and V60 Polestar production
Mon, 30 Jun 2014We were pretty smitten with the Volvo S60 and V60 Polestar models during our First Drive in Sweden a few months ago. We especially loved the way that its Öhlins adjustable dampers offered a perfect balance between suppleness and sporty handling. Now, the rest of the world will finally be getting the chance to take the Polestar models for a spin because Volvo is shipping out the first units of the limited-edition vehicles.
Their completion marks the first time ever that Polestar-tuned models have come off the line at Volvo's Torslanda factory. However, production of the 350-horsepower hatchback and sedan is very limited. Volvo is building a total of just 750 of them for the world market, and the US is only getting 80 wagons and 40 sedans.
In addition to the cutting-edge dampers and more powerful engine, both Polestar models benefit from a rear-biased all-wheel-drive system routed through a six-speed automatic with paddle shifters and launch control. Six-piston Brembo calipers bring things to a halt, and the limited models get unique front and rear fascias and 20-inch wheels. These are two very hot Swedes, and if rumors are right, then there are even more tuned Volvos from Polestar on the way. Scroll down to read the full announcement.
Limited-edition Volvo S60 Polestar priced at $59,300*, V60 at $60,900*
Fri, 01 Aug 2014You saw their US reveal at this year's Chicago Auto Show and read our driving impressions from Sweden. Now, if you act fast, you can actually own one of the very limited 2015.5 Volvo S60 and V60 Polestar models coming to the United States. The order page for these slick Swedes is now online, but the slots are filling up about as quickly as these cars accelerate.
Volvo plans to build a combined 750 of these Polestar models for the world, but the US is being allocated just 120 of them. Prices start at $59,300 for the S60 or $60,900 for the V60 (*plus a $925 destination charge). The only option is color - either Black Sapphire or Rebel Blue. If rarity is playing a part in your decision, you might want to pick the S60. According to the reservation site, only 20 of the sedans in each color are making it over here; the rest are V60s.
As the top versions of their respective models, both Polestars are packed with features. They share a turbocharged, 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder engine rated at 345 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque with a six-speed automatic transmission and a rear-biased all-wheel-drive system. Acceleration to 60 miles per hour is claimed to take 4.7 seconds for the S60 or a tenth more for the V60 with a top speed of 155 mph. They are about more than just a hotter engine, though, with Öhlins shocks, six-piston brake calipers and 20-inch Polestar wheels with Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires. Check out the gallery for the full, official specs, and get to the order page soon, if you decide you need one of these limited Swedish sportsters.
