2001 Volvo V70 X/c Wagon 4-door 2.4l on 2040-cars
Cabot, Arkansas, United States
|
Welcome to my no reserve auction for my 2001 Volvo V70 XC. I've had this car for about a year and bought it to repair and use as my main car. I'm having a baby which has changed my time and financial priorities away from this vehicle, so now it's for sale. Most of the nice features are functional, aside from those listed. The AC blows cold, heater is warm. The bulbs in the headlight control panel and climate control unit were replaced with blue and/or red LED bulbs. I believe this was tastefully done and does not take away from the driving experience. Heated/power seats work great. Dual climate control is awesome. Power windows work with auto up/down functioning appropriately. The floor mats are aftermarket but look good. There is also a matching mat for the rear hatch compartment, which is in the pictures. The rear seats can fold completely flat. Also included is the rear cargo cover. The windows are tinted and should be legal in most states. One window has a poor tint job. Cosmetic imperfections were photographed. The driver's side fog light is broken. All imperfections were photographed and described to the best of my ability, but there may be other minor ones not shown here due to the nature of a high mileage car. The glove box stop is broken, so it swings wide open. The auto dim mirror is permanently dimmed, reducing visibility. The transmission has serious shifting issues, ranging from flaring between shifts to very hard up and downshifts. Sometimes, it shifts well. The check engine light is on for the transmission solenoid (2-3 If I'm not mistaken.) The engine has not really given me any issues, but does make a hissing sound when under load. It burns a quart of oil every few tanks of gas, more when driven hard. The suspension is worn out and needs replacement and the car does vibrate when driving. The AWD system works. Two sets of keys are included. Clean title. Radio works, No CD function though .Brakes are very strong and smooth. ABS works. The car has recently received a new upper (polyeurethane [pictured]) and lower (factory spec) transmission mounts. Spark plugs were changed around 10k miles ago. The serpentine belt (pictured) seems to be quite new, and the timing belt was inspected (by me) and appears to have been serviced recently, but I cannot officially say that these belts were changed because I have no proof. I will update this listing with any other known issues, as I am trying to give a complete picture to the buyer. The bottom line is that the car needs TLC, maybe a powertrain swap, but has been driven by me for approximately 10,000 miles with no apparent worsening of the conditions listed. That being said, there are no warranties or promises associated with the sale of this vehicle. Please ask any questions before bidding. Due to my job, I am not always in town and may require some patience from the buyer to complete the transaction. If buyer arranges shipping, This shouldn't be an issue.

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.
Two more Volvo Concept C Coupe teasers drop [w/videos]
Wed, 28 Aug 2013Volvo is planning to take the wraps off its Concept C Coupe tomorrow ahead of an official unveiling at the Frankfurt Motor Show. If you just can't wait until then, though, Volvo has released two more teaser videos for the new concept.
Like the video from earlier in the week, we get a couple more sneak peeks of the stylish two-door including our first glimpse of the interior. The highly conceptual concept likely hints at a future coupe for the Swedish automaker, and after dropping the C30 and C70 from its lineup over the last couple years, this can't come soon enough. Scroll down to watch both new teaser videos, and stay tuned to see more on this car tomorrow.
2013 Volvo C30 R-Design Polestar Limited Edition [w/video]
Thu, 28 Feb 2013Last Hurrah Comes and Goes In A Hurry
It isn't very often that we drive a new car that's already out of production, but that's exactly what has happened with this 2013 Volvo C30. After just five years on the North American market, the last C30 quietly rolled off the assembly line back in December. But before that happened, Volvo decided to send its compact hatchback out on a high note with a little added performance and exclusivity courtesy of this R-Design Polestar Limited Edition model.
The term "hot hatch" is admittedly tossed around a lot these days, but the combination of an R-Design styling package coupled with a good number of extra ponies under the hood should be more than enough to put the C30 in the mix with the likes of the Volkswagen GTI and its not-too-distant cousin, the Mazdaspeed3. The chief problem with the Polestar Limited Edition, though, is that it's priced against sportier all-wheel-drive compacts like the Golf R and Subaru WRX STI, so we decided to spend a week with the Polestar to see if its exclusivity and performance are enough to make up for its higher price tag.
