Tell the world a little bit about your vehicle
At the time, this was Volvo's flagship vehicle. I purchased it from a local used car dealer after I found it on eBay. It had very low miles for a 13 year old car. My guess would be that an older lady drove the car, it had wear on the drivers seat edge where the side airbag is located and the seal is torn at the entry threshold. Very smooth car in great shape. Had NGK plugs in it when purchased, I think they were changed in an attempt to clear an occasional #3 misfire CEL. I'm getting about 25 mpg around town after purchasing a Scan-Gauge II and adjusting my driving style.
