This 2000 Volvo v70 has been a joy for me the past 6 months Ive owned it, I bought the car as a daily driver because of the amount of room and Volvo's reputation of quality and was not let down once. The car was bought from a dealership and looked over by certified technicians the car checked out great, I changed the oil 5000 miles early just a personel preference at 150,000 miles. Oil looked great. There is no mechanical disfunction about the car other then what I think is the passenger side electric unlock relay. But is a easy and cheap fix that doesn't take long. The car is a smoke free car and has a electronic adjustable trailer brake for hauling that I will include with the purchase. The only reason I am selling the car is the attachment this car gave me for volvos and have to decided to buy a Volvo S60 r and use it as my daily.
The GOOD
- The paint on the car is in absolute amazing condition for the miles and age. Has typical front bumper rock chips, but because the car is white there hardly noticable.
- Mechanically this car is its strong point, theres no suspension pops, brake fade or travel, motor sounds healthy and runs strong, tires still have 80% of the tread left, starts right up, drives straightand true, driving the car I can promise you will think it is new. I myself am still impressed with how mechanically sound the car is and how itdrives like new.
- The interior in the car is a strong 8 out of 10 other then known wear points on the leather(driver seat, armrest, steering wheel)
- Has a electronic adjustable trailer brake
- Shifts smooth and gets around 27-29 mpg on the highway, I've averaged 33 on the highway before.
- Brakes are strong, pads are around 40-50%
The BAD
- The only ding that I can see on the car is on the passenger side on the door and Im sure could be popped out.
- The check engine light is on, but I beleive its because the service interval has not been reset
- The driver seat and armrest does have a lot of wear, a armrest cover does come with the car. and a used driver seat can be bought for $50-$100
As for now I do beleive I have covered everything that I can think of with this car. Overall this is a great car with a lot of functionality and Im confident the buyer will be happy with their purchase.
Happy bidding!
and feel free to ask any questions that you have, I will be happy to answer any questions.

Scratch that new crossover, Volvo teases ad campaign for XC60
Sun, 26 May 2013If we were to paraphrase the opening lines of Kenneth Graeme's Wind in the Willows for our own purposes, we'd write, "Have you heard about Volvo? They never planned a new crossover at all. It was all a horrid low trick of theirs...." To be fair, though, we can't blame them for our own presumption. When the Swedish car company created a site called LeaveTheWorldBehind.com and teased a couple of videos for some kind of collaboration with Swedish House Mafia, we thought the crossover in one of the teasers pointed to a new vehicle on the way.
Turns out that's not the case. It really is 'just' a collaboration with the band on a music video for Swedish artist Lune's cover of their 2009 song, Leave the World Behind.
But there are Volvos in it, and you can watch it below and hear original song alongside. We've also included the press release with more details on why it all came together, and a behind-the-scenes video on the collabo. To paraphrase Forrest Gump, "That's all we have to say about that."
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.
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.
