Review

Beautiful car, but has problem with poor ground clearance. Bumper cover scrapes curb stones and gets damaged when pulling out of parking spaces. Don't buy the R model unless you are willing to pay for multiple $950 bumper cover replacements. It happened to me. Apparently the experience is very common. The V70 has better front clearance.

Favorite Features

The Atacama leather seats look great.

Suggested Improvements

Design needs to be corrected to provide 2 inches more clearance on front end of car.

Review

Fun to drive for those who don't want the boring ride of a mini-van. Has plenty of space for everything you need. Can drive on long trips and not get so fatigued.

Favorite Features

It's got to be the ride, handling, and pick-up.

Suggested Improvements

10 way power seat would be cushy. Make leather seats easier to get without the moonroof.
