#223 of 378 Re: V70 2.5T or XC70 2.5T?? [dukie2] by badsaab Apr 23, 2006 (6:59 pm)
Replying to: dukie2 (Mar 31, 2006 5:44 pm) We are also deciding between a v70, and xc70 or a vw 3.6 4motion. I was wondering if you guys purchased a car yet and if so, what was your decision and how did you arrive at it? Are you happy with your choice?   Our thoughts- Really like the xc70 but already have a xc90 (sort of wish I'd considered the xc70 first time around- I think it has more cargo space in the rear, also like the v70 and how it drove- felt sort of sporty with the 2.5t (Does anyone know how it is in the snow?) and finally I have always had VW's and I like their drive, especially this 3.6 4 motion- it was great, but the SEATS are terrible- what has VW done? My 1999 passat has better seats. Also the first year of the model run scares us a bit, so it is a question of which volvo?   Any thoughts would be helpful. Thanks.

Replying to: cruxdyno (Apr 04, 2006 3:45 pm) From what I know of prices, it sounds like you got a terrific deal. You must have bought it directly from them. Imagine someone getting a vehicle like that and then deciding they don't like the feel of a wagon and trading it right away. Good deal for you. How many miles on it when you got it? What color and equipment? Replies to this message: cruxdyno (Apr 29, 2006 4:59 am) jim314 (Apr 29, 2006 7:34 am)

Replying to: jim314 (Apr 27, 2006 9:56 am) Having had the car for 3 weeks now, I just plain love my decision with this car. Its black with the premiem/climate package. Had 6000 miles on it. On the highway, it drives like a dream and surprisingly good on higher speed turns. Must be the 4 wheel drive making it feel so tight. Where are you from and what model/year do you have? Any comments good/bad would be appreciated. Replies to this message: jim314 (Apr 29, 2006 7:34 am)

Replying to: cruxdyno (Apr 29, 2006 4:59 am) My wife drives a 2004 V70 base model 2.4L FWD with auto trans. Fuel economy is extremely important to her and so she wanted the 30 mph highway mileage that the 2004 V70 gave with its base wheels/tires--Michelin low rolling resistance 195/65-15s which have a 51 psi max infl pressure. She keeps them at about 40 psi. We live in Dallas TX.
#228 of 378 Low Mileage XC70 by diggler99 May 09, 2006 (6:58 am)
We're looking at a 2004 XC70 AWD 2.5T, fully loaded, 21K miles from a non-Volvo dealer in Columbus, OH. The car appears to be in immaculate shape and is pending an independent inspection. They are asking $27,990. Does anyone think this is isn't a good deal? We think it is, but we don't have the certified preowned 6y/100K warranty. We are also looking at some service loaners and low mileage used XC70s and V70s at a Volvo dealer, including a 2004 XC70 wtih 46 K for about the same price. We're debating if the service warranty from a Volvo dealer is worth getting a car that has 25K more miles on it. Also, we have a quote of around $30500 for a 2006 V70; posts on this site suggest that the extra price for the XC70 is worth it. Any advice is welcome, thanks.

Replying to: collins5 (Mar 29, 2006 5:48 pm) Was the 32,700 plus 695 your out the door price or was that in addition to tax, tag, title and other fees

#232 of 378 2004 XC 70 Opinions at 26k miles by keithand Jun 19, 2006 (9:34 am)
We bought the car while living in Norther Michigan and this car handled snow better than our previous Jeep Limited AWD and RX330 AWD. Moving to FL the trunk volume has come in handy numerous times.   It has gone to the dealer for only regular service intervals and a broken passenger side seat belt which would not retract.   The MPG is anywhere from 18-28 depending on road conditions and from someone who likes power the 2.5T has been fine. The car is tank like in only positive terms.   No complaints.   The car still gets noticed by others being black w/ taupe interior and the Xenia wheels. The HID's are fine once I raised them a bit.   Now what to get next? Probably a sport sedan!
