Perfect SUV Alternative; Great Quality

2004 Volvo V70 2.5T Fwd 4dr Wagon (2.5L 5cyl Turbo 5A)

Incredible seat comfort, drive 10-12 hours without stiffness/fatigue. Performance excellent. Runs well on regular without pinging but using premium fuel enhances performance noticeably. Build quality superb...car delivered with zero defects, fit/finish is world class. Vehicle feels solid, safe, and very controllable in inclement weather and at high speeds. Fuel economy 19 city/24 mpg highway. Rain sensor wipers alleviate need for constant wiper speed adjustment. Best vehicle I have ever had. Great alternative for luxury car buyers who want high quality,slick styling, solidity, and comfort without the stigma of pretentiousness of a BMW or Mercedes.

My 2001V70 T5M

I was brousing this site and read the Edwards road test review of a loaded T5 and thought they were talking about a differant car. Ours is now 2 1/2 years old and as tight as new, with ZERO rattles, ZERO poor fits and no dust intrusion whatsoever over our many dirt driveways. The brakes are firm and linear, the power strong and the mileage good. I don't know what you drove, but it sounds like a wreck. And as for the howling tires, did you check the pressure?

I bought this car (my first Volvo) after having a Lincoln Navigator (over- priced piece of crap), I LOVE THIS CAR !!! It is fast, comfortable and sexy for station wagon (after limo tinting the windows), I AM NO soccer Mom, even though I have 3 kids, But, when people I know pick on my choice I take them for a ride (or let them drive it) AND well, they have a different perspective. Test drive one you'll love it !! The ONLY down fall my Husband is 6'01" and he said that it is tight for him in the drivers seat,But that it is fun to drive. Ask a Dealer to crash pictures AMAZING people walk away !!!

2004 Volvo V70 R 4dr Wagon AWD (2.5L 5cyl Turbo 6M)
0 of 1 people found this review helpful

I used to own the 99V70R and traded it for the 2004. What a difference! Finally, volvo improved on the turbo lag, braking and handling that plagued the earlier version of the R. Athough, my 99 R was still worlds above most every sedan and every wagon on the market at the time. Love the feel of the AWD in hard cornering moving the torque from wheel to wheel through the corners! Awesome!
