Beautifully maintained 2001 Volvo V70 T5 for sale. Black exterior with graphite interior, 100% rust-free. Smooth shifting 5-speed manual, ice cold AC, and 247 horses of turbocharged power. Totally stock with the exception of a rarely used trailer hitch and wiring.

I have owned this V70 for a little over two years and have spent well more than my asking price keeping it in tip-top shape. $20k+ receipts from the previous owner. Some receipts from me too, though I've definitely lost a few. 257,000 miles, most which came from the previous owner's 160-mile highway commute. Full synthetic oil changes every 4k-5k miles since the car drove off the lot. Below is a list of work done within the last 20k miles. 

Clutch, pressure plate, slave cylinder, and throwout bearing at 247,000 miles
300 watt Volvo OEM radio amplifier under passenger seat
Brake pads, rotors, brake hoses, two calipers
Emergency brake cable and shoes
Lower control arms, ball joints, outer tie rods, sway bar links
CV Axles
Radiator
Front wheel hub assembly (both sides)
Air filter, spark plugs, fuel filter

Radiator hoses
Power steering pump and hoses
Vacuum lines
Complete PCV breather system and many coolant lines
Timing belt, tensioner, both pulleys, and water pump
Serpentine belt
Rear shock absorbers 
Turbo control valve
Brand new General Altimax Arctic Winter Tires

All in all a great car with tons of life in it. Only a few minor wear items:

Driver's heated seat doesn't work, driver's power seat works 100% when the car is first started but not always after that, trim piece for one seat fold-down handle is missing, paint has scratches and blemishes.

Volvo still undecided on offering plug-in hybrid versions of all models

Thu, 03 Jul 2014

The automotive world is only a few months away from getting its first real glimpse at Volvo's big gamble with the unveiling of the next-generation XC90 (pictured above as the Concept XC Coupe). We're already getting a preview of the revolutionary upgrades with the introduction of the Swede's Volvo Engine Architecture family into some of its 2015 models, like the recently driven S60. These changes are just the start, though. The real magic could be in the powertrains.
Dean Shaw, Volvo Cars North America vice president of corporate communications hinted to Autoblog a few months ago that every model sold in the US could come in a plug-in hybrid variant, starting with the new XC90. Despite confirmation rumors that this has now come to pass, Shaw told AutoblogGreen that the only thing Volvo is confirming right now is that the platform is capable of that. "We haven't confirmed that all US Volvos would be available with PHEV," he said.
Shaw did confirm that that XC90 will come with a gas and plug-in hybrid powertrain that offers "around 400 horsepower." According to Plugin Cars, the new XC90 will be unveiled in August and will make its public debut at an as-yet-unnamed auto show in the fall. Also, sometime during the 2016 model year, a plug-in hybrid variant will be added to its lineup.

Watch this video, then buy this 1993 Volvo wagon

Mon, 12 May 2014

Do you want to be perceived as rich and cuddly? Of course you do. Then you need to buy this car.
We know it makes no sense, but that pretty much sums up our take on the video you'll see below, in which a man by the name of Christoffer Castor, from Scania County in Southern Sweden, attempts to convince any and all who watch to buy his car. The car in question is a 1993 Volvo 240 wagon, in red with a black fabric interior.
We have quite a bit of respect for the old boxy Volvo wagons here at Autoblog, and, despite the presence of some unsightly rust on the tailgate, would gladly bum about in this particular 240. We especially appreciate the five-speed manual gearbox and that it's from the car's final year in production.

2015 Volvo S60 T6 Drive-E

Wed, 23 Apr 2014

For those not paying attention, Volvo has updated its S60 sedan range for 2015 with a new range of engines under the Drive-E label. Wearing the same T5 and T6 badges to note the relative levels of power under the hood, both engines are 2.0-liter four-cylinders, with the lesser being turbocharged and the greater being both supercharged and turbocharged.
Both Drive-E variants are currently only available in front-wheel-drive flavor, though Volvo will still happily sell you an S60 T5 AWD with the older 2.5-liter turbo five-cylinder, or a top-of-the-line S60 T6 with a turbo'd 3.0-liter six-cylinder and all the wheels turning.
The car I drove for a week is perhaps the most balanced version of the S60 range, with that exotic sounding twin-charged 2.0-liter mill planted happily in the attractively sloping nose. Provided you're not hung up on front-drive dynamics, the T6 Drive-E might be a solid candidate for your next premium small sedan shopping list, as well.
