2000 Volvo V40 Station Wagon - 115,965 Miles NY State residents please read entire ad. Recent timing belt. 4 New Bridgestone tires - excellent brakes. Car was just inspected a few hundred miles ago. As you can see, it is a beauty. Cold AC. Excellent leather interior. Owner is a personal friend of mine, and he has put a load of money into this vehicle. His mechanic now says there is a possible head gasket breach. He has bought a new car. Let his loss be your gain. It actually runs and drives great. I drove it about 25 miles - no problem. (I drove it locally to run some errands - no problem.) It was running the whole time I took the pictures and there is no smoke or overheating. The temperature gauge never went past halfway. I see no visible signs of leakage. I did have to add a 1/2 gallon of coolant when I picked it up. There is a slight misfire at idle and the "Check Engine" light is on. I did not scan the computer, but the light is probably due to the miss. This car has plenty of pep when you hit the gas - very responsive. Strong tranny and no visible leakage anywhere. This vehicle goes to the highest bidder. No Reserve! No Buy It Now! Please Don't Ask! I don't know how it will drive on a long trip, but I would chance it as long as you have a "plan B" and a couple of water containers. However, there are no guarantees. Because the "CheckEngine" light is on, it will not pass NY State's inspection, therefore ... New York residents are unable to bid or buy unless they are a registered car dealer, registering/re-titling the vehicle out of state or are using it for “Parts Only”. When a car is sold as “Parts Only’ or “Salvage” it must pass a NY State “Salvage Inspection”. This is done to keep rebuilt wrecks that are unsafe off the road – especially vehicles with frame damage or airbag deployment. My cars are rarely rebuildable wrecks and therefore will pass this strict inspection process when the problem that is advertised is corrected. There are about 10 to 15 NY State salvage inspection sites in NY State – 2 or 3 are on Long Island and there are a couple in NY City. Call me for further clarification. As a registered NY State dealer I am unable to sell a car that won’t pass inspection to a NY State resident. Anyone else can bid and buy. Sorry, I don’t make the rules but as a used car dealer I must abide by them. Any questions call 516-228-1016 and leave a message if I’m not in. Please don’t wait until the last day or last few hours to contact me. Please speak clearly. I will pick you up at the train or bus station. Winning bidder please leave a $300.00 deposit (of which $50.00 is non-refundable) in PayPal within 48 hours of the auction close. If I don't receive the deposit within the 48 hours I will relist the car. Please plan on picking this vehicle up within 15 days of the auction close unless you have made prior arrangements with me before bidding. If the vehicle is left after 15 days your deposit becomes non-refundable and I will relist the vehicle. All vehicles that run and drive are driven at least 10 to 20 miles and usually 30 to 40 miles. I try to describe these vehicles to the best of my 35 years of experience. Our familiarity with these autos is limited to the miles we drive them. Please be aware of this when bidding. As always, if the winning bidder is not happy after road test and examination, I will cancel the sale and refund $250.00 of your deposit. 60% of my Ebay sales go to “phantom bidders” or “no-show” bidder. Look for the vehicle to be relisted after 48 hours. “A bid on eBay is considered a contract, and you're obligated to purchase the item.” Final sale price is what you pay! (New York residents must pay sales tax and inspection fee when applicable.) There are no extra hidden fees!!! Good luck and thanks for looking!
