Best used car I ever owned

This is my 3rd Volvo and there is a reason that I keep buying them, and that reason is reliability. This S70 T5 is great. It's good on gas, comfortable and fun to drive, and it's fast. I love to hear the turbo kick in. If I buy another car guess what... Volvo.
If they could provide reliable service..

I am an original owner. I love how the car looks and how it handles, and overall I love the car -- but I have had problems. The blinkers took 5 trips to the dealer to get fixed, then I gave up. Also, bulbs burn out on this car every day it seems. Goes through headlight bulbs every couple of months. Also, I had to replace the fan in the air conditioning. Also the check engine light was coming on, and the dealer told me that hardly ever happens - it was a $900. repair and the car was out of warrantee by 5,000 miles. Thank goodness the dealer ended up fixing it for free. What a blessing. I guess you can say Volvo and I really have a love-hate relationship!

I "tried" to incorporate a "9" in my ratings of perfect "10s" (to make it more realistic for non-believers). But there was not 1 particular category that I felt I should slight in any way. If anything the performance category it should be an 11, And the comfort a 12! If you own 1 of these cars (especially a Turbo) DO NOT SELL IT to purchase something "More expensive"(like I did). You will find there is NOTHING on the market (regardless how much you will spend) that compares to the comfort and performance this car delivers. The seats feel tailor-made. 0-60 and 1/4 mile times are also in V-8 territory. Dont believe me? -drive one. And as for gas mileage - the turbos RUN ON AIR! I get 28mpg.
Low Reliability

Good Sturdy car, Safe, However it is difficullt to maintain. While changing oil and filters -- it needs special internal filter and needs special wrench. It forces you to go to a dealer for oil changes. No dip stick for checking transmission fluid. Ease of maintenance always increases a car's reliabilty. Engine hot light comes on occasionally while the temp gauge reads normal and with full antifreeze. The light goes off only after an overnight cooling. The electronic throttle light comes on and the engine stalls. Volvo has not been able to explain the problem. The dealer will clean the throttle butterfly but it might or might not fix the problem. Volvo refuses to issue a recall.
Can I get Better Gas Mileage?

Love this car. Roomy inside,wish it had heaed seats since it has leather. Our volvo is sturdy around corners and handles like a dream minus when you hit a bump. I am used to having an suv and miss having the room in the back for my work supplies, but I had to park my Escalade due to crazy gas prices. That baby gets 17mpg. I ge 23mpg in town and would like to see if I can get alittle better gas mileage out of it. If anyone has any ideas send me and e-mail.
