Replying to: wolftrap (Apr 19, 2005 7:04 pm) Hi, did you happen to go for the '01 XC70? I am looking at one too with 53K miles for 19K. I too am somewhat concerned about the reliability of this car...I figure what I save on this vs. a new car will help offset any repairs, but I don't want to find myself stranded or without a car b/c of lots of repairs. Any suggestions on how to get this thing checked out? It's being sold by an individual. Can you get a Volvo 'certified' yourself by taking it to a dealer?

Replying to: need2buyacar (Apr 30, 2005 2:58 am) Only a Volvo sold by a Volvo dealer can be "certified". You could buy an extended service contract though. If you are buying from a private party an inspection by a reputable Volvo technician is a good idea.

I am hunting for tires for my car. I'm moving to Phoenix and it's very hot and sandy there. Further I like the moree aggressive look and am considering larger rims. Any suggestions? I'm also thinking of getting a nose bra to help avoid desert sand blasting on the front end paint. Any ideas? Replies to this message: volvomax (May 21, 2005 10:12 am)

Replying to: dobesign (May 20, 2005 3:09 pm) More like it is very hot and dusty here. Bigger rims on a 98 Cross Country isn't a great idea. It can damage the AWD system. Bras really aren't either, the dust gets under the bra and can sctrach the finish. A clear bra is a better idea, although some of them can be turned yellow by the sun.

Got it on eBay. Maybe a bit of an impulsive thing to do. Now reading that year has a lot of problems. Paid $8000 for fully loaded with third seat and 90K miles. Should I be sorry? What kind of trouble am I looking forward to?     Replies to this message: volvomax (May 23, 2005 8:31 am)
