I checked ML, X5, AUDI and decided XC. It's equipped with tons of safety features, as supposed to be. With two kids I chose options like integrated child boost seat and a third seat. We took a Florida vacation recently, a 3,000 miles drive total. It's a great car to drive; comfortable, safe, reliable, fast.

I would recommend this vehicle to anyone expecting a baby. Soon after welcoming our first born, we started to realized what a great move buying our XC was. It feels safe, comfortable, and definitely spacious.

What a car!

I got my 2002 XC V70 on Halloween day this year. Priced at $39,925, I got it for $33,480 or so. The looks are a killer, and it has everything I need: AWD (I snowboard a lot), high ground clearance (my other cars are a Jeep Grand Cherokee Ltd. and a MPV minivan), VERY quiet interior (I love to listen to music in the car) and tons of luxury features. I got the Cold Weather Package, Touring Package, and Premium Package for that price. I have two kids, and we are forever having to grab things from the back, and a wagon facilitates that. I couldn't be happier.

Very safe, but reliable?

We bought the XC because we feel it's about THE safest car on the road today. Almost returned the car because of some problems, the worst of which was a vibration caused by the tires. 4 new tires were put on which solved the problem. Other XC owners have had this problem and I think Pirelli made a bad batch of tires although I have no proof to back that up. Go to www.xc70.com for info on this and more. With the vibration fixed, we are very satisfied with the car. If AWD isn't important, I'd recommend the V70 2.4T (cheaper, nicer ride, better gas mileage but otherwise the same car). VW Passat is nice option too (maybe not quite as safe, but more reliable.)

After owning 3 Volvo's my fourth, the 2002 Volvo XC Wagon has to top the list. By far this is the best riding and most comfortable Volvo I have driven. The car has a nice "elevated" drive affording the driver a clear veiw of the road. As a long drive car it is excellent, with a smooth ride and an extensive list of creature comforts. The seats are by far some of the most comfortable I have experienced. The AWD is a nice feature and when called on responds very well. For soccer mom's looking for an SUV with top end luxry without driving a tank this car certainly fills the void. A great family car!
