Volvo V70 R (2004)
for sale
Price: US $7,950.00
Price: US $7,950.00
Up for sale is my
2004 Volvo V70R
in a remarkable
condition, exceptionally well maintained, accident-free, untouched by tuners, or amateur (street / track) race drivers – a rare find. I bought this beautiful red R as one-owner and
clean-Carfax 2011, at her 78K miles. At 122K now, with flawlessly performing mechanics and electronics (*), very clean non-smoker interior and eye-catching exterior, no “suspicious” noises, smells, leaks, etc., this R is ready for the next couple of hundred thousand miles of smooth operation that well-maintained Volvos are so famous for.
The limited edition V70R sports wagon is truly an
amazing, super versatile driver’s machine! Great family and supplies hauler on
the outside, super effective and economical traffic beater (excellent
fuel economy: 19-22 mpg city, 29-33 mpg hwy), with just clues
of elegant sport aggressiveness noticeable to those in the know. Also true to
the “sleeper breed”, on a curvy highway, with the dynamic chassis controls set to
sport (or advanced) and gas pedal pressed harder, the 300 hp turbocharged R
shows its real potential, delivering the thrill of Acela-rail-like ride, acceleration pushing you into the ergo-shaped deep bucket seats, more mid-range
overtaking power (torque) than you’ll ever need – exactly when you need it, and a great feeling of staying “glued” to the road, in control at all
times.
Except for some aluminum accents added to the
dashboard and shifter console, the car is completely
stock specification. Original manual shifter knob, which I have replaced
with an aftermarket aluminum ball to complement the R’s unique aluminum “space-ball”
manual shifter base, will come with the car upon sale.

pads (+brake fluid system flush), wheel alignment, coils and spark plugs (80K
long-life), coolant and transfer-case fluid, synthetic motor oil, cabin air
filter, all wiper blades (inc. headlamp ones). NY inspection / registration just renewed.
For your consideration:
· Speed-sensitive power rack and
pinion steering (*) operates mostly in the default driving mode, harder for
parking maneuvers. Bought the car with the issue and have
never felt
the need to fix it. Cost of a potential repair at a Volvo dealership
= $723 (power steering transducer + steering system flush)
· Rear tires up for replacement probably
after this summer ($250)
· Minor cosmetic issues, like curb rash
on the alloys, a couple of very light dings / scratches here and there, small crack in the rear
left lamp cover, light wear on the driver’s seat
· There is one non-collision accident / minor issue on the record for the car. In June 2012, while backing up from a driveway, I sat on a high curb with the R's undercarriage,
scraping and damaging parts of the exhaust system upon freeing the car from the trap. Resulting costs were covered by insurance which later produced the said record.
