Today, I'm picking up an '06 V70R 6MT, so my current car must go. (I was going to wait for the '08 redesign, but the current incentives were too good to pass up.)
Bought new in 1999, this car has been meticulously maintained from day one (with help from the great info I've gotten here on SS). Like all 2000 R's, it has 5 sp. auto, dual exhaust, 261 hp stock, AWD.
Currently 54,xxx miles
First few oil changes were Kendall dino 10-30 for break-in, switched to Mobil 1 @8,819 mi., which I've used exclusively since @ approx. 3.5 to 4.5 K intervals, depending on use. Transmission fluid flushed @ 37,749 and replaced with Mobil 1.
I have all service records. Except for a few warranty issues, all work was done by a very good local Volvo-only independent shop.
Upgrades: IPD ECU, Sport Exhaust, anti-sway bars installed on 4/4/04 @ 37,749 mi. Car is hardwired for Valentine One, and I recently added the IPD Ipod adaptor.
Summer tires are Toyo Proxes 4 with about 6,000 mi. on them. Included are four Nokian Hakka. Q snows mounted on steel wheels(see last pic in link provided below).
This car is in excellent shape and has never been abused - the bulk of the mileage is from ferrying my daughters, who play on travel hockey and soccer teams, to away games.
The paintwork is in excellent shape. The clearcoat is deep and virtually no swirl marks. A couple of minor nicks on bumper covers, etc. The only real cosmetic issue is from the effects of salt in the engine compartment - whitish scale on aluminum and galvanized parts (see pics).
The IPD ECU reflash was overriden a couple of weeks ago when the dealer downloaded the new ETM software, but I will have it reinstalled unless the buyer wishes otherwise.
The car has remaining warranty coverage, through Guardian Warranty, through 7/30/07 or 100K, with zero deductible - very comprehensive, bumper-to-bumper.
I will be glad to answer any detailed questions from serious buyers. Feel free to email me.
Price is $17,500.
I had trouble posting pictures here, but may be seen at this link.
