It drives like a luxury vehicle but is as reliable as a Sherman Tank. Even though it’s 18 years old and has 165k miles… this Volvo XC70 is still amazing.

I purchased a 2005 Volvo XC 70 to replace my 2002 XC70 CC. It is virtually same car, but with smoother performance and ride. The transmission on my 2002 broke down at around 28,000 miles, but I purchased another one anyway. This is a great wagon. It is very dependable and fun do drive. The outside visability problems that I expereiced with my 2002 have been corrected to a degree. This model's response, including turbo, is smoother than in 2002 was and the transmission definitely works better. It has great pickup and hugs the road. Its perfect for snowy weather. I can drive with no problem in weather that forces other 4WD off the road. Overall, this is a good car even for the slightly lofty price.

Just took delivery of my new 2005 XC70. A trade from a 2002 XC70. Volvo has cut some corners which is very disconcerting. The under floor storage has been replaced with insulation (and not very well installed) The seat pockets are smaller. The handy in-dash cup holder has been replaced by a useless nook. The center console has lost a lot of its usefulness and been replace by useless cup holders. In short poor quality creep has set in, a trait learned apparently from Ford. unt. Additionally, the poor quality Perilli tires are still there.
good wagon

Great deal w/ end of year discounts. A nice wagon w/ few faults. I've been very happy in the last few months. Only had to go into dealer for a loose suspension part and was given a loaner. Pirelli tires tramline on concrete freeways.. no real option to swap out due to odd size.
The best balanced X-Country and comfort

Supurb and comfort, fun to drive are the outstanding feeling about this safest car in the world. Having SUV feeling with a little bit hard driving in the off-raod fields, it's quite easy and comfort on high-way and even at a jammed urban environment on the other hand. Perfect balance of comfort and fun to drive is the superiority of this car which is never realized by other manufacturers such as BMW, Merceds and Japanese averagers.
