Through May 2nd, Volvo's buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2011 C70 T5 .00048 and 55%, respectively for consumers who qualify for its top credit tier.

  Hi fantom. Let's answer the easy questions first :). Yes, the loyalty cash is available on leases.

  You sure can, bxxxmartin. Volvo's February buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2011 Volvo S60 T6 AWD with 15,000 miles per year are .00157 and 56%, respectively. I don't believe that Volvo is currently providing support on 2 year leases of this car at this time. Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum

  volvobuff and alltorque: I have actually considered the Gothenburg (or Madrid) option, but current financial situation will not allow. I assume the Yank bureaucrats allow the Euro-diesels and small gas rigs across the pond, right? Petrol in Minnesota is now around USD 2.80/gallon, and diesel is around 3.10, about 10-11% higher, which would be more than offset by 20 or 25% (?) higher mileage. I bought a new 2005 Jetta diesel ... Read More

  That's exactly right. One good if perverse way to educate oneself on this matter is to take OSD on a new Volvo in Gothenburg. You do get a full tank of gas when you take delivery of your car, but the first time you have to fill up your new baby with $2.00/liter petrol and do the math, that $8.00 per gallon gas really gets your attention. Furthermore, in many if ... Read More

  vwdawg, Your logic is faultless - as ever. Maybe that nice Mr Obama will hike fuel taxes to fund his Welfare programme. We recently got rid of our Socialist government and are now having to pay the price for 13 years of disastrous over-spending. I hope you get the good engines etc before your wallets are emptied but experience tells me you probably won't. Will be watching your upcoming polls with ... Read More

  Hey, alltorque: Thanks for the update. The problem with the American market, I think, is not Volvo's, but our own. Gasoline is still cheapo cheapo here. In Minnesota it's currently under $2.75 USD (and most everyone even complains about that!). There aren't many V8 engines sold these days, but smaller SUVs with V6s getting around 22-26 MPG are still quite popular. There are some smaller sedans with 32-35 MPG popping up, ... Read More

  Vwdawg, Asked my local Volvo dealer if he knew anything. Went like this : "Do you know if these diesels will be available in the American market?" "Well, they have the current ones so I guess they'll get the new ones". "No, they don't have any at present". "You're joking, aren't you ?" "No. Absolutely serious". "Well that's just stupid; most of our sales are diesels. What do they sell then ... Read More

  Hey alltorque: Have you heard any scuttlebutt about Volvo bringing these diesel rigs to the North American market? I love my old '01 S60, but it would be nice to move into a diesel at some point. volvophile1

  On Saturday, here in U.K., I attended a Volvo S60 Track Day - FOC courtesy of Volvo. Around 40 guests, a bunch of hard-core pro drivers and maybe a dozen of the new S60's - all diesel - either D3 165bhp or D5 205bhp, (twin turbo) and all Geartronics, all FWD. Pro drivers and guests put the cars through some brutal high-speed handling tests and we were all amazed at the ... Read More
