You are bidding on a used 1998 Volvo V70 GLT Low Pressure Turbo Wagon. This wagon is front wheel drive with a four speed automatic transmission. The title is clear. This is an Arizona vehicle (originally titled in Yuma, AZ) so no rust. I bought this vehicle at auction as a spare for my wife but we have 7 vehicles which is ridiculous so time for this one to go. Overall the paint is shiny with some scratches and dings. There are some chips on the front of the vehicle which is to be expected. The windshield has some small chips but no cracks. The rocker panels are showing some fading of the paint. The car is mechanically sound and you can drive anywhere. The struts are a bit noisy, the power lock on the passenger side front is intermittent, and the inner hatch latch is missing so the 'open hatch' dash light stays on continually. The rubber trim along the driver's side roof is flaking off. No check engine light. The service light comes on (different from check engine light) at start but goes out shortly. This light is supposed to indicate oil change intervals and can only be reset with a special dealer tool so that is why it comes on. The vehicle has had a recent oil and filter change (within 500 miles ago). The tires are in fair condition with roughly half of their life left. The rims are in decent shape with some curb rash and clearcoat flaking. The black leather interior is in good condition with normal wear from old age. No tears. The carpet and door panels are clean. All dash switchgear works. All radio lights work. All power windows work. The power sunroof works. All lights work including license plate lights. The vehicle has had a recent front end alignment and tracks straight. AC is ice cold and heat works well. Good power and spool up from the turbo. ABS brakes work fine and stop short. Tranny shifts very smooth into all gears and works in all modes (Sport, Economy, and Winter).
New parts include:
Front headlight lenses and turn signals (originals had cracks)Interstate batteryIPD cold air intakePlugsWiresCap and RotorCleaned MAF, IAC, and throttle bodyPCV SystemABS moduleOil cap and sealDipstickCV joints (both sides)Rear shocksDash trim kitSwaybar end linksControl arm bushings
This is a good used vehicle with high mileage but these Volvo motors are based on a tractor block and will run forever with regular maintenance. As you can see, most of the items that regularly fail have already been replaced. The reserve is not too far of the Buy It Now so don't be scared to hit that button. Buyer is responsible for pickup and/or shipping. Please don't bid if you don't intend to buy it. This is a used vehicle with a clear title and maintenance and repairs done by me. I've worked at rebuilding/repairing cars etc since I was a child but I'm not a professional mechanic so of course there is no warranty on this vehicle other than the 'taillight' variety...in other words, the warranty is up as soon as I see your taillights driving away. Thanks in advance for looking and bidding--RICH, Chandler, AZ
