Just some things around work

Kinja'd!!! Kinja'd!!!

Those seats are ultra heavenly. Sporty yet extra triple comfy!

Kinja'd!!! Kinja'd!!! Kinja'd!!! Kinja'd!!!

Here is a S60R with 240,443 miles on the ticker. Oh yeah, it needs a lot of work but the owner is treating her very well :]

Kinja'd!!!

Finally, we got in a buuuuunch of GLC 300’s in for inventory. This one is high levels of plain. The 2.0L 4 banger drives pretty good. It’s pretty small tho. Halogen headlight housings are 2004 eco car quality. No features to report on this particular model except for its drivers assistance package which brings the price up to a grand total of $46,980. Oh yes, they are selling like crazy!

Kinja'd!!! Kinja'd!!!

Not my cup of tea. For that money, i’d rather get this. Also a bare bones model except it has Thor’s hammer and that glorious interior

The leather with the suede hugs you so well. Hard to see but it says R-Design on the center of the back. Ultra comfy!!!!

I’m really really hoping XC90’s drop in price so I can convince my parents to pick up a CPO one in a year or two.

CPO’s will be very hard to find. They will not last very long on the lots

They will reveal the V90 (wagon version of the S90 that had already been released) soon. As soon as I get pics from work, i’ll post on OPPO

The boss’s other 1983 245. He has 2. His DD and this one that is technically a new car. He saved it. 100% original and in showroom condition. Same with 1992 Vantage. Both with basically no miles on them

Volvo really knocked these out of the park. Wish I could afford a V90 when they come out.

Most of the buyers are loyal Volvo owners. That’s a very good sign

It’s funny that this grille is now blacked out because for years it was an enthusiast’s thing to plastidip the bars on the classic waterfall grille...

Awesome! I am curious what sort of work these need done at 240K since my dad’s V70 T5 has made it to about 206K so far...is it just the normal service interval or are there other things to be aware about?

Even Volvo is doing this nowadays but at least they make it tasteful, unlike BMW...

Kinja'd!!!

Those two fog lights always look like warts to me...why couldn’t they have been incorporated into the black plastic mass in the bumper? Perhaps we may never know...

just the normal things. It need the front control arm bushing, spring seats, tires,alignment, and it has a coolant leak. Radiator and hoses.
