Used 2007 Volvo V70 Consumer Reviews
A blast to drive!!!!
This car has put the "fun" back into driving....and at a reasonable price. I shopped around a ton before buying my 2006 V70R. Nothing else came close! If you want lots of room without the SUV size,if you need safety, quality, speed, handling, this car is it. There are a few negatives though. Front bumper clearance is a concern everytime I park. The ride can be a jarring at times...price to pay for a "sporty" suspension, even in comfort mode. but the thing that bugs me the most is the turning radius. It's huge. I knew all of this going into this relationship. Bottom line. I love this car. Leaving an Acura TL/BMW 3 series at a light wondering what just happened is priceless!!!!
One of the best!
Easily one of the best cars I have ever driven! I am an enthusiast who has owned and driven everything. If you're to buy this car, you're getting $65,000 of quality for 40. If you're the kind of person who likes to have something that is all about quality and also shows complete thoughtfulness without wanting to impress anyone but yourself, this is the car for you. Its a car that can easily be put on a track and later cart your wife, kids and the dog home as well.

Safety, Features, Comfort & Performance
After 12 months, still impressed. Purchased after extensive research and test drives of several brands in a quest for a wagon-- closest competitors were Mazda6, Audi and BMW 3 series wagons. (BMW 3 series wagons impossible to find, plus dealers not helpful.) Gas mileage has actually improved over time to about 22 mpg around town-- dealer recommended using Chevron regular grade and it has performed well. Brake check valve and outside mirror glass replaced under warranty right after delivery. Otherwise trouble-free. Dealer/service has been great.
2006 V70 R
This is a great car and is comparable and better than cars costing much more. Very smooth 6 speed Automatic transmission and lots and lots of power. This is a high performance car in sheeps clothing.
Ford Ruined Volvo from Years 2000 and Upwards
Changing a single head lamp is an astronomical task,or rear tail lens, etc. Added many features that commonly break that are a fortune to fix like the electronic steering module, Variable Valve Timing is nice with fair bottom end torque but not there when you need it at high speed merging on highway. It feels like an economy class now. The cost minimized to profit maximize by Ford in so many areas that they made the vehicle breathtaking garbage, and I have owned several Volvos in my lifetime. I hope Geeley does better, and these huys make marine engines as well as trucks. I
