This car is billed as a wagon, but it has the advantages of an SUV. The big secret or surprise is that it has almost as much ground clearance as the Volvo SUV (only .07 of an inch difference).

There is a bunch to like about the XC70. Great interior, comfort, safety, fit & finish & so on. The one piece that absolutely doesn't fit is the engine. The 5 cylinder is noisy and rough , simply inappropriate in a car that typically stickers out around $38K. Drop the drive train from my Acura TL-S into the Volvo and you have a home run. Why is Volvo married to that #$%&# 5 banger?

Went to Volvo in August 2004 after very unpleasant ownership regarding a Jeep Grand Cherokee LTD. The Volvo has good styling, interior appointments are good- exceptional (leather quality), with the seat comfort exceptional. Fair to good performance, with handling very good. There does appear to be certain "blind spots" when turning sharply or backing up. Interior noise levels are minimal.

I love this car, but the fact is that it has broken down completely twice within two years. The first time, the entire engine block had to be replaced (under warranty, of course) - the second time it was a fan somewhere in the cooling system that causes serious overheating. Now that I got this out of the way - the car is generally excellent. Ride, acceleration, fuel consumption all great. vast amounts of luggage accommodated.
