Pics will be up momentarily. Selling as we have moved to the country and after one winter figured out this caR just isn't up to the task. Need to buy a truck.

Original owner titled 5/2007. Still have original window sticker, book, etc. Spent the first 8 years of life in sunny SoCal wiped with a diaper nearly daily. All records, all options, many upgrades, pampered well beyond any reasonable level. Maintenance being done now includes new Volvo OEM front struts, strut bearings, iPd strut mounts, iPd HD endlinks (second set!), alignment, SUM calibration, all engine mounts, new battery. Front brake rotors/pads and braided SS lines done at 75,000. Car is in excellent shape inside and out, there is nary a scratch to be found, and there is not one single door ding, NONE. Knowing how few 2007 V70Rs made it over here, I am positive this is one of the finest examples to be found in the entire country. Considering the condition of the car, upgrades, and the fact that I am throwing a ton of money at it to make it absolutely perfect, I am asking a slight premium over KBB.

Excellent+ condition inside and out. Never smoked in. Always, ALWAYS, garaged.

The only real deviation from stock is the softloader. This hardware and the software is included with the car, and can be removed at the click of a mouse, but is also very useful as a diagnostic device if you desire. Everything else is just improved, see my signature line and ask questions as you please. Aside from the intercooler, and drilled rotors, the car would appear completely stock.

I have been on the forum for many years, and long ago sold a 94 850 turbo here. Many people still hanging around probably recognize the car. I know Melvin does!:p And it's not like I don't still have a couple Volvos hanging around, so I guess I will be too.

You can email me at ken and that would be at westerngroundimprovement and behind that you will need to put .com .

Car is located in Carroll, Iowa.

VIN YV1SJ527872625817

Asking $13k firm.

Hope it was a clean diaper. Looking forward to pics.

Dozens, if not hundreds, of Swedespeed forum members just simultaneously orgasmed.
GLWS, though you won't need it.

No, I'm too old and jaded for that, but it IS quite nice to say the least.
If you must run Euro rails, those really look great!

Few random items...

Mobil 1 full syn since new. Every 7k. Dealer service throughout warranty. All records.

It does have the GROM bluetooth connection.

Those are the silver mirror caps from an R design that I brushed. I have the original electric silver mirror caps that are brand new.

All of the doors are covered with sound dampening material (secondskin). So is the backseat and the trunk. The trunk was done with both secondskin and also dynamat. You pretty much cannot hear the exhaust in the cabin and it makes the stereo sound much better.

The optional sub is in the factory location, however it was retrofitted with a new sub and amp. There is a pretty good thread on that here http://forums.swedespeed.com/showthread.php?105017. I am an audio snob and it sounds great and has worked perfectly for 6 years. The spare tire and all tools are still in their original location.

There is a hitch with the small 1" receiver. All I use that for is a bike carrier.

The silver euro rails are from the old V70 "titanium" edition.

The tint is ceramic huper optik at 35% and it is perfect. This tint has the best clarity and heat rejection on the market, bar none.

The windshield was replaced 2 years ago, so no cracks or pits. Rain sensor works fine.

The tires are Goodyear Eagle F1 all seasons with about 50% remaining.

I am having the remaining repairs being done shortly so it will be about 2 weeks before the car can be picked up.

No accidents. Title in hand of course.

Any idea about the serial number on the transmission? I'm sure potential owners would want to know if it's in the range of potential problem valve bodies.

Phenomenal car. Pretty much my twin. GLWS!

Pretty... it would be so nice to have. Wow.
Nice touch with the titanium rails.
It is just a car, ZZZZZZZ, just a car...

Must resist. Must RESIST!!

They have these cool trucks that carry cars from one side of the country to the other for a small amount of cash. Don't try to use that as an excuse!

16 hour drive. You don't think I looked it up? 900 to ship. I am thinking...and pondering. Super cool. Manual and I'd have left on a plane tomorrow morning (well, he did say two weeks wait...)

I just looked up Carroll, IA on the map and have to wonder.....is there actually any point to this car in a place where everything is laid out on a grid?
 
#23 ·
LOL. It's worth it just for the seats and the sound system compared to a Camry. My mom's old Dodge Neon cured me of being a cheapskate.....at least when it comes to cars!
 
#25 ·
Wow, very nice! Is your Homelink not working or not compatible with your garage door opener?
 
#26 ·
missing the "awd" emblem on the rear - was this removed or...?
 
#32 ·
I'd be afraid to put this on any shipping rig other than a white glove carrier, it's that nice :)
 
#34 ·
Oh I forgot to mention one of the best parts...

I HAVE THREE FOBs!

Dealer lost my key one time and ordered me another. Then found it. Booyah.

Ok.... I'm going to need everyone's help in explaining to the old lady that 2 wagons in the garage are better than one. Who wants to call her first for me?
 
#40 ·
If you're buying this you better garage it! If not, we will find you!

EASY. when one breaks/is out of service for maintenance, you have a backup. It's great.
