Overall it's been a pretty good car.The 2 problems are replacing lights constently and road noise. Other than that it has been economical and reliable.

Excellent driving machine, little wacky on the electrical and ETM but solid car all told. Good gas mileage for 245hp.

I've owned 8 Volvo, including an 1800ES. This XC70 is the BEST! Power, looks, utilitarian, and soooo comfortable. Best buy in cars I have ever made!

Get the extended warranty! Well I just received the call from the dealership that my Volvo needs a new transmission ($4,500). Since the car is worth between $5-$6K that’s it. The car was a great car to drive. The car just was not reliable. After about 50-60K miles, every trip to the dealer was another $1K bill. I’m not talking consumables here but things that have never broken on any car I have ever owned. (a radio that would change stations every time the car hit a bump or the driver window that fell out of its track twice -after being fixed). There is nothing like driving a $40K car with duct tape holding your window up. My wife hates this car.
