Car Forum / Volvo Cars / April 2006Whats the best modern day Volvo estate?
Hi all; I guess the the V90 is no longer made, so whats the best, say two old, Volvo esate? I suppose its going to be one of the V70 models!! Regards Ian I am very happy with my 1998 V70. After 200K it still has the original battery and full exhaust system. No work needed on engine or trans. yet, just usual brakes, front end and water pump wear out. On the negative side parts cost an arm and a leg of course. > Hi all; > > I guess the the V90 is no longer made, so whats the best, say two old, > Volvo esate? > > I suppose its going to be one of the V70 models!! Yep. V70 or XC70 if you want a bit more ruggedness. --- Sam i drove a 06 v70r, for an hour the other day...that is a nice, snappy wagon... >i drove a 06 v70r, for an hour the other > day...that is a nice, snappy wagon... What does the 'r' stand for? --- Sam "racing" > >i drove a 06 v70r, for an hour the other > > day...that is a nice, snappy wagon...

Of the two, the V70 is the superior vehicle. They depreciate rapidly, so buying a 2-3 year old one is a good idea. Insist on a full maint. history showing that everything has been done by the book or better. John |
