2002 Ocean Race for salvage

Post by **Blacklab467** » 20 Dec 2020, 20:02

There's a reasonably good condition 2002 Ocean Race in the boneyard here. Is there anything unique or valuable worth pulling off of it or anything that anyone wants from it? Interior is pretty nice shape , other that that, I can't really see anything I need off of it. Let me know if anyone needs anything from it.

It was essentially an appearance package that included 4C suspension. Nothing special about them other than the 18” Atlantis wheels, cheap badges, 4C shocks & blue paint. The actual Ocean Race wagons had a goofy leather/cloth seat combination. Extremely hard to get clean if soiled. The few Ocean Races I’ve seen all had very light colored seating, which doesn’t help.

Edit: apologies for the misinformation on years! Thanks VTL for the correction.

Pete, there was ORE V70XC for 2002. I know a guy who drives 235/650.

"In 2001, to mark their sponsorship of the just renamed Volvo Ocean Race, special Ocean Race editions of the V70 and V70 XC were announced. Released for model year 2002 the cars only came painted in a unique shade of blue. Silver exterior trim and roofrails as well as assorted badging set the models apart from non OR models."

As said, nothing is really special about ORE.

Watch out for those Atlantis wheels, frequently they have been flooded

This one's that nice blue with blue cladding on the exterior and black interior. Wheels are gone, silver painted trim and roof rack. All the Ocean Race badging is gone except a small label under the armrest that says its #74 of 100. Not really anything else unique about it, I like the collar but the blue cladding looks horrible!

Pull the label of the armrest off in case anyone else needs an Ocena Blue

Rustoleum
74/100

Usually these don't physically hurt, but this one hurt.

If you pay too much for a set, are you under water?
