This 2007 Volvo V70R is finished in Black Sapphire Metallic over a Nordkap leather interior and was sold new in Van Nuys, California. 3,407 of these performance wagons were built from 2004-2007, and this example is one of just 345 from the final year of production. The turbocharged 2.5-liter five-cylinder sends power to a Haldex all-wheel drive system through a recently rebuilt 6-speed automatic transmission. The seller acquired the car in April 2015 at 81k miles and has added about 16k daily-driver miles since. Service work in August 2017 included new control arm bushings all around, new pads on the front/rear Brembo brakes, and a four-wheel alignment. A 7,500-mile interval service completed at the same time included a tune-up and a change of Castrol synthetic blend. A California smog check was last passed in September 2016. This Volvo is offered with an accident-free Carfax, complete records for the seller’s ownership, and a transferable TWG extended warranty. Also included are two key remotes, a valet key, books and manuals in the original leather folder, and a clean California title in the seller’s name. The Black Sapphire Metallic exterior (452) reportedly shows some signs of prior repairs and paintwork. Professional inspection noted variable finish quality to a number of body panels, some color variation on the roof and sides, but no unrepaired damage or body rust. Other exterior flaws captured in gallery photos include: Two parking dings on the rear bumper A scratch on the driver’s door Peeling paint on the front air dam Clearcoat on the driver’s side of the roof marred during recent detailing Minor chips and small spots of paint loss The 17″ Pegasus alloy wheels show some curb rash and wear Michelin Pilot Super Sport 235/45 tires that were reportedly added in September 2015. Exterior identity trim includes chrome “R” badges on the grille and rear hatch door, the same logo impressed on each wheel, and a trailing-edge roof spoiler. The Nordkap/Navy leather interior (76) has six-way power/heated front seats with 3-position memory for the driver. The car is also equipped with cruise control, A/C, dual-zone climate controls, power moonroof, and an HU-850 AM/FM head unit with 6-disc CD changer, all said to be working correctly. The odometer registers just under 97k miles, which the seller believes to be accurate. Seating includes a split-fold rear bench, and cracking is visible on some of the surfaces. The rear window wiper/washer are working, but the headlight cleaning system is not. Original interior/exterior colors were confirmed by a Volvo dealer, and a VIN decode adds these production details: YV1 – Volvo Passenger Car S – V70/XC70 series J – V50/V70 AWD body style 52 – B5254T4 5-cylinder 7 – LEV2 (Low Emissions Vehicle) 4 – Check digit 7 – 2007 Model year 2 – Ghent, Belgium production Plant 664078 – Serial production number A two-level compartment under the carpeted rear cargo area holds a plastic storage tray, a safety spare with Pirelli tire, and the recently replaced battery. The seller reports the Volvo 4C adjustable suspension works correctly in Comfort, Sport, and Advanced modes. The Haldex AWD system was recently inspected, and new front struts were added in September 2015. The turbocharged 2,521cc five-cylinder is transversely-mounted and was rated at 300 hp when new. Work commissioned by the seller included the following: 2015: 81k miles – professional inspection on a lift noted the frame was clean, with no obvious repairs or structural rust 82k miles – ipd performance brake lines added 85k miles – timing belt, tensioners and water pump replaced; shown on underhood service sticker above 2017 at 94k miles: 6-speed Geartronic automatic rebuilt with new valve body, work done by long-time Volvo mechanic Radiator expansion tank replaced The accident-free Carfax includes a gap in early vehicle history, shows the car has been dealer-maintained, and captures California-only records from four owners. The seller notes the sale includes a transferable TWG service warranty on many of the systems, which continues through April 2020 or 125k miles.
