Poor resale value, but plan on keeping it once you buy it!! They seem to be hard to part with and I can't figure why! They're great performing vehicles and God-awful reliable! The aspect that I don't like is that I have to use premium grade fuel! At approximately $.40 per gallon more, I get griped at the tank or the thought of going to the station! The other thing that I dislike is that the back seat leg room is very minimal.

you'd think the engineers at Volvo would get the electrical right. my '06 is the 2nd XC70 where the computer failed and the car stopped- this time in rural Vermont. call 800# and you get 25 miles towing and NOTHING else. this is my last Volvo- NOT DEPENDABLE!

After thinking about it for a long time, I narrowed down my choice of cars to the XC70, Honda Element and Outback. Drove all 3 back to back. Bought the 2007 XC70 with 30k miles for a great price, especially with a trade-in of my 16 year old Toyota 4-runner! I thought there was not comparison between the Volvo and the Outback....I know the Outback has a good reputation, but the XC70 has blown me away (imagine moving from a 1993 4-runner to a 2007 XC70). It is such a joy to drive, and although I can't compare it to other cars in its class, I think it handles and rides incredibly. It is so solid and quiet and the interior is like sitting in your favorite leather chair.

I've owned 3 XC70's from 1998 - 2006. My 06 has 168,000 mi on it now and there is no rust showing anywhere and no oil leaks. If you're willing to pay attention to maintenance, then this model will last a long time. Much better build quality than many newer cars. The ride is great. I do a lot of my own maintenance. If you go to a garage for work, it will be an expensive car to keep.
