Ford denies possible Volvo sale to BMW Ford Motor Co. is not in discussions with BMW or any other company regarding interest in the Volvo Car Corp., a Ford spokesman said after the Goeteborgs-Posten, published the sale rumor in Volvo's headquarters city of Gothenburg, and The Financial Times said talks were under way with Germany's BMW AG. Spokesman John Gardiner said the struggling U.S. automaker is still weighing its strategic options concerning its asset portfolio. Earlier this year BMW expressed an interest in buying at least a stake in the Volvo unit, but that interest has completely cooled, The Wall Street Journal reported. Ford bought the car operations of AB Volvo March 8, 1999, for $6.45 billion and made it part of its London-based Premier Automotive Group, which also includes Jaguar and Land Rover. The Premier Automotive Group also included the Aston Martin until Ford sold it to a British-led consortium for about $907 million March 12. Volvo has 2,500 dealerships in 100 markets worldwide. Sixty percent of sales come from Europe, 30 percent from North America and the remaining 10 percent from other countries. The 80-year-old automaker plans to introduce two major models, the third-generation V70 station wagon and the XC70 crossover, this summer and fall. Sursa: http://imedinews.ge/en/news_read/42505/

Un filmulet...marfa ce scrie la sfarsit ) http://youtube.com/watch?v=bKI9vxtJOHA

Adica V-ul se termina in jos...unde se situeaza sigla...si vrea sa zica..."uitati-va atent aici ce e...Volvoooo" Tot nu stiu...deci...de la ce vine?

"V" de la Volvo ))) Nu stiu...ce inseamna?

Ieri in Judetul Valcea...mai exact prin orasul Olanesti, 2 tineri din Rm.Valcea au intrat cu masina intr-un copac la 140 Km/h si au murit pe loc... Pacat de ei ca erau cam de varsta mea...masina era un Opel Corsa...iar la marimea ei se explica ca n-au scapat...

Nu inteleg...credeam ca S80 se bate cu S, Seria 7, A8                                 S60 cu E, Seria 5, A6                                 S40 cu C, Seria 3, A4 De ce S80 face parte din clasa cu seria 5, E, A8?

Un reportaj despre XC90 care m-a miscat profund...asa cum o spune si titlul Moved by the Volvo monster  DOING something brilliant has its pitfalls. The Arctic Monkeys, those famously chilly simians from Leeds, are in that position right now. Their first album, Whatever People Say I Am, That’s What I’m Not, was brilliant. It was hard and fresh and the lyrics were eloquent and unpretentious. Now, mere months later, the second album is here and you can just hear the critics wanting to trot out some threadbare cliché about second-album syndrome. For the record, Favourite Worst Nightmare is just as good. It’s a noisy consolidation, more than an evolution, but how that can be a bad thing escapes me. Still, the worst that can happen to the Monkeys is that they get bad reviews. At least they’ll still be rich and get lots of sex from complete strangers and, crucially, they’ll still be the only Arctic Monkeys. The same cannot be said for Jacuzzi. Jacuzzi is a company based in California named after the brothers Jacuzzi that makes hot tubs that blow bubbles and squirt water jets. Of course, their product was so brilliant that no matter if your jacuzzi is made by Jacuzzi or Armitage Shanks, it’s still a jacuzzi. What’s the name for that? The best I can come up with is a “brand eponym", which sends me to sleep as I type it, but there you go. There are loads of them. In SA, if your domestic worker asks you to pick up some Rama, she won’t be disappointed if you come back from the shop with Flora, because Rama actually means any margarine. If you come back with the Rama in a Checkers, you’re actually carrying it in a plastic bag, not a cheap supermarket. Whenever you go rollerblading, use your hula hoop or your frisbee or describe your yawn as Technicolor, you’re making some poor brand manager somewhere wince, because they are all trade names. They are all the name of somebody’s company. Overseas, people “Hoover" the floor and “Xerox" their documents. And anyone who’s ever been near a computer has Googled something before. Once-cool Google set their lawyers on the case in an attempt to stop the evolution of the English language and have, obviously, failed. If you don’t believe me, just google it. One brand you don’t find on the list is Volvo, which is no criticism, because you don’t find BMW or Mercedes-Benz there either. But here’s the thing. I think it should be, because I’ve just spent a few days tooling around in the Volvo XC90. Yup, it sounds like a wireless modem but actually it’s a rather good car. Now, I know it’s not new, but it occurred to me the other day that I’d never driven what Volvo has referred to as the most important car it’s ever built. So now, with a new engine up front, I have. And I gave it a proper test, too. I took my wife, her sister, her sister’s husband, her five-month-old nephew and the nephew’s nanny to Pietermaritzburg. That’s six people, one of whom is very small but comes attached to fold-up cots and prams and that extraordinary array of baby paraphernalia and snot-absorbing stuff that babies need. The first thing, then, was to retrieve a sixth seat out of the floor of the boot. With the lifting of one lever, it was done. That seat has a three-point seatbelt, its own air-conditioning vent, cup holders and just about enough legroom for an adult and plenty for a child. There is a seventh seat, also folded into the boot floor, but we didn’t need it. And from then on the XC90 did nothing but impress. Six up, along with baby gubbins, and we were not at all uncomfortable. On the long freeway I set the cruise control at 130km/h, the climate control at 22°C and the stereo to loud and sat back in smug comfort, the 3,2 V6 changing gear as required on the hills. This is a big car, of course, and that’s evident in town, where it feels like you’re at the helm of the HMS Victory. But the clever thing is that the Volvo doesn’t feel like a great big Range Rover of a 4x4 to other road users. This, I suspect, is the greatest trick of all, because the Volvo is a four-wheel-drive, but it’d be stretching it to call it a 4x4 in the traditional sense. I seriously advise you avoid the Kalahari in this thing. There is no low-range gearbox or diff locks or any of that proper 4x4 apparatus. No, the XC90 is strangely nondescript and anonymous. Its smooth, inoffensive lines are without aggression, unlike all other big, butch offroaders. It’d be hard to hate anyone in an XC90, despite the fact that it’s just a much better BMW X5. The 3,2 model, which I drove, is the bottom of the range and while there’s pulling power at relatively low revs, the reality is that it battles a bit, screaming its way to 100km/h in about 10 seconds. There’s nothing wrong with the engine, it’s just that the XC90 weighs a staggering 2,6 tons. No wonder it feels so good over road humps and other traffic-calming measures. It doesn’t go over them — it flattens them like the heavy roller at the Wanderers. So fuel economy isn’t great. I returned about 12l/100km on the freeway and about 17l/100km in town. But then, this is a massive car, so perhaps that’s not too bad. The diesel model is significantly slower but returns far better mileage. You didn’t buy this car to race off from the lights, so that’d be the one I’d go for, especially considering that it’s the same price as the V6 model. But if you like to embarrass people in sports cars, there’s the V8 model that roars to 100km/h in just 7,4 seconds. There’s nothing in the world more likely to irritate a greenie than the thought of some rich mummy dropping off her privileged kids at their expensive school in their monster-truck Volvo. My advice is to ignore them. Greenies tend to be rich, white, urban, middle-class folk who — and here’s the rub — don’t have kids. They talk a good fight about taking children to school in a bucket of lentil soup or something equally right-on, or making the snotty little shits walk, but those with kids know different. There is no length you won’t go to in order to keep them safe and happy. The engineers at Volvo knew that when they designed this brilliant car. Not only is it just clever, it’s also very, very safe. It obviously scored the maximum five stars with the Euro NCAP boffins, but they were also moved to single it out for special praise. I’d go so far as to say that if you have children and they have friends who are also children and if you can afford the R465000, it’s actually irresponsible not to own an XC90. Volvo might not like it much, but I think the cumbersome name “XC90" should become a brand eponym. And it means “best family car in the world".

Nu e urat )...dar yo m-am plictisit aici ))... Ati stabilit locatia...asa din curiozitate... ?

Yo sunt membru activ...intru mereu...nu prea postez ca n-am ce datorita "experientei" mele in ale masinilor...cand imi voi cumpara si yo un volvo voi participa la intalniri...DECI...stabiliti locatia aia mai aproape de mine ))))

Poate sunt simple zvonuri...

Pe laga V8-ul asta au reinnoit si motorul T6 : Volvo S80: New 285Hp T6 Turbo & 185Hp D5 Diesel with AWD Versions Volvo’s expanding its new S80 model lineup with the addition of a 285Hp turbocharged inline-six and an AWD version of the five-cylinder D5 turbo diesel. Not much to say about the latter so lets concentrate on the new T6 Turbo engine that was first presented in the 2008 Volvo V70 this March. Based on the normally aspirated 3.2-litre inline-six, the T6 Turbo has a displacement of 3.0-litres, producing 285Hp (210 kW) and 400 Nm of torque, all of which are available from just 1.500 rpm. According to the Swedes, the S80 T6 accelerates from 0-100 km/h in 7.2 seconds. The Volvo S80 is now available with the six-cylinder, 285 hp T6 performance engine with All Wheel Drive that was first introduced in the all-new Volvo V70 in March 2007. Another new power train combination for the S80 is the 185 D5 turbo diesel with AWD. "The T6 engine adds an extra dimension to the S80 engine range," says Hans Wikman, Vice President Vehicle Line Large Cars at Volvo Cars. "The engine has been programmed to provide the highest possible performance with the lowest possible fuel consumption and exhaust emissions." The T6 petrol engine is based on the compact 3.2-litre in-line aluminium engine that has been part of the S80 engine range since the introduction in March 2006. The turbo version has a displacement of 3.0 litres, producing 210 kW (285 hp) and no less than 400 Nm of torque. Maximum torque is on tap from just 1,500 rpm and remains available all the way up the rev range, resulting in remarkably quick acceleration and smooth driveability (0-100 km/h in 7.2 seconds - preliminary figure). The somewhat smaller cylinder displacement of the turbo version, owing to the slightly narrower cylinder bore and shorter stroke, is compensated by the turbocharger which in this engine takes in exhaust gases in two stages, with the inflow divided into two lots of three cylinders each, a system known as twin-scroll technology. Twin-scroll technology permits use of a more compact and uncomplicated turbocharger and provides extremely swift response, fully on a par with that from twin turbochargers. All Wheel Drive with Instant Traction The T6 model in the Volvo S80 is equipped with Volvo's All Wheel Drive. Using an electronically controlled hydraulic clutch, the AWD system distributes drive between the front and rear wheels to ensure the best possible road grip in all situations. The system features Instant Traction, which shifts drive at lightning speed from the front to the rear wheels when starting on a slippery or loose surface. Energy-efficient turbodiesel from second-generation diesel range The five-cylinder D5 turbo diesel can also be combined with All Wheel Drive in the the Volvo S80. The powerful and easy to drive D5 offers 136 kW (185 hp) and no less than 400 Nm of torque - and it does so across a particularly wide rev range. The new D5 engine features an electronically controlled turbocharger, advanced multi-point injection technology and a particularly powerful engine management system. The driving experience provides far high performance and the driveability and traction are now further enhanced by the All Wheel Drive system with Instant Traction. A service-free particle filter is standard, making the D5 a highly eco-efficient alternative. Sursa: http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2007/05/volvo-s80-new-285hp-t6-turbo-185hp-d5.html

Nu mi se pare normal sa va retrageti domnule Socrate...e adevarat ca uneori nu se obtin raspunsurile la unele intrebari...si cand se obtin pot sa fie gresite... dar trebuie sa ramaneti pe pozitie si sa spuneti ce s-a intamplat...astfel se mai reduc sansele da a zice ceva eronat..si sunt sigur ca orice s-a intamplat...se poate reveni si va putem ajuta ! Eu recunos ca nu am raspuns...dar habar n-am ce-i aia o bujie...sau alte componente ale unei masini...yo de-abia am facut 18 ani si inca n-am masina si experienta necesara pt a da sfaturi! Deci va rugam, reveniti si haideti sa discutam ce s-a intamplat si in sec. urmatoare toti vom pune umarul la rezolvarea problemii...trebuie sa dam dovada ca posesorii marcilor Volvo sunt diferiti de altii! Va asteptam !

Marfa rau 480-ul...imi plac mult farurile alea de se ridica in sus...sa faci poze cu masina si cu farurile ridicate pls...sunt mortale

Altceva inedit

L-am vazut acum la promotor pe Pro TV....doamne cum arata...pozele ca pozele...dar cum arata la TV 

0W... se pune cand masina are foarte putini Kilometri in bord sau e noua...apoi se trece la 5W...10...etc....

Dar nu inteleg de ce pe S60 cel mai mare motor care se pune este de 2500 cc..pe cand la BMW seria 5 se pune si 4000 cc

Ehehe..yo n-am masina sunt in club deci ))...sper sa vina si masina prin toamna asa daca iau carnetu pana atunci ...deocamdata sunt la 12 ore de scoala de soferi ))))...nici n-am citit decretul )))
