Great car! Almost no mechanical problems. Handles beautifully. Comfy for long road trips. Hauls dogs, kids, canoes, stuff. Goes like stink!
THIS CAR IS A LEMON!

This car is the biggest lemon I have ever driven. It was in Volvo service one week after I bought it for electrical issues and continued to be a major problem and financial drain the entire time I owned it. I spent $3,000 in service bills in 2003 alone! Of course Volvo covered everything under warranty. However, I should have dumped the car much sooner based upon the amount of problems I had. Horrible re- sale value. I couldn't give the car away and of course Volvo didn't want to pay anything on a trade-in because they know of the problems. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER VOLVO AGAIN! I now drive a Lexus with no problems whatsoever.

I bought this car new. Everything was ok for the first year. After that it went down hill fast. Transmission died at 16k miles, the car eats tires, replaced the alternator, replaced 4 engine mounts, replaced the throttle assembly, leaks anti-freeze all the time, Leather seats wore out, steering wheel covering came off and so on . I am glad to have gotten rid of the car and would not buy Volvo again
Don't Buy

Bought this car because I gave my Honda Civic to daughter. Thought it would be reliable and safe. Well it turned out to be safe, as an unmoving car is pretty safe. The car frequently stalls out for no reason and the dealership hasn't been able to figure out what the problem is (after changing out numerous electrical parts and sensors). I would get another car, but I went back to school and don't have the money too. I've dumped about $3,200 into car, wish I would have never purchased.
No Problems whatsoever, EVER!

The car the lasts forever, and appearently it has. People buy luxury cars like this one, and think that, since they are expensive, that you can treat them like crap and trash them. Some people are just too hard on their cars. We bought are '99 V70 wagon and have had no problems whatsoever. We have treated it well and it has treated us well. I also do believe that sometime, people do just happen to get a bad car, but not everybody. Our car is a great car, great value, still turning heads, very "Classic" looking and extremily comfortable. And if your going to buy a nice car like this, dont be cheep and buy a non- leather car, it just doesnt make since!
