  Love the XC VOLVO - 2007 Volvo V70
  By MHR26 - August 17 - 8:20 pm

  I bought a similar version in 2001 and drove my Volvo for over 185,000 with no issues other than routine maintenance. The engineering is fantastic, fuel economy is good considering size and weight of the vehicle. Safety is fantastic and overall, best car I have ever bought.

  Stealth - 2007 Volvo V70
  By Otoman - March 19 - 1:50 am

  This has been a fantastic car. Very comfortable for the long haul with outstanding seats, lots of cargo room and best of all, it flies! No one expects that a Volvo wagon can move so quickly. I often have cars trying to pass me on the right/cut me off, etc. I can easily close down any hole in the traffic with this car. Passing/merging is fun. Blitzing down interstate on-ramps is a joy. Clover leaf on-ramps are a treat as well. The upgraded sound system is worth the money. If you want a lot of go with very little show, this is your car.

  We are now Volvo fans - 2007 Volvo V70
  By alphamobile - October 29 - 7:37 am

  Ours is a 07 model and we bought it in 10 with 32K miles. In two years I have put close to 30K miles on it. It being our first Volvo, and first Euro car for that matter of fact, its been a very pleasant car. At first we were feeling iffy about due to our fear about the notorious high cost of maintenance of Euro cars. Fortunately, in two years the only repair expense (not including regular maint.) was $150 to replace the brake vacuum pump. It certainly helps that our local Volvo dealer repair shop has very competitive pricing. The car is quite powerful and handles quite well. Some critics say its not very sporty when compared to BMW. But not everybody needs or really wants a BMW.

  V70R Revelation - 2007 Volvo V70
  By Affecionato - July 21 - 2:00 am

  Ive had numerous Volvo wagons, including a 740, 850 and V70T5. Ive also owned from Acuras to VWs but nothing comes close to the R. Turbocharged engines have been used by the Swedes for decades, and are now more and more in vogue with certain German makers. They offer the low-end torque appreciated in our driving environment. The R has the ability to go from a high speed cruiser to a fun car that can be easily tossed around. It is the ultimate sleeper wagon with all the traditional Volvo attributes. The leather is beautiful and the interior is understated and built to last for decades.

  2.5T - 2007 Volvo V70
  By RRB - November 19 - 1:16 pm

  Provides more usable space than most small SUVs while possessing better road manners and comfort. However, after having driven Saabs for many years, I found the large turning radius of this vehicle to be almost truck-like by comparison.

  Just Bought One! - 2007 Volvo V70
  By Dave - LA - April 21 - 6:33 am

  I have been wanting to purchase a V70 or XC70 for a few years. I swapped my Toyota 4Runner due to gas mileage for the V70. The Volvo drives and sounds a lot like my Honda Accord that I had 12 years ago! I love that Honda and I love the way this car drives. I will be using the car for surfing, so I opted for the optional roof racks which do produce some wind noise. The biggest suprise is the performance. I have owned 3 porsches and I currently own a 911. I must say the Volvos pick up is excellent, and I can really feel the turbos kick. I am very pleased with the car so far, and I hope to keep it for at least 8-10 years!
