Volvo V70 2004
A great family car, the 5-cylinder D5 diesel has proven itself and is a joy every time you rev it up, but don't think you're going to be a total Schumacher, the power is perfectly adequate for such a large estate.
All I can say about the engine is to change the oil and filters at the usual intervals and it too will run long and reliably like a quality clock. I had the 163 hp version.
Big trunk ...

Pros: A great family car, the 5-cylinder D5 diesel has proven itself and is a joy every time you rev it up, but don't think you're going to be a total Schumacher, the power is perfectly adequate for such a large estate.
All I can say about the engine is to change the oil and filters at the usual intervals and it too will run long and reliably like a quality clock. I had the 163 hp version.
Big trunk - you can even load a sofa if you really want to. When you fold down the rear seats and go fishing, you can leave the tent at home, as there's plenty of room for you and your girlfriend to stretch out in the boot. By sliding the front straps as far forward as possible, I was able to stretch out to my full length, I'm 1.85m tall.
The ride is soft and comfortable, not to be compared with an S-Class Mercedes of course, but for a car in this class the comfort is more than good.
I recommend the heated seats, in winter it's cooler when the seats are heated.
Appearance is a matter of taste, for me personally the appearance was greatly improved by fitting the right wheels.
This is a reliable car, never let it down on the road, despite the fact that my specimen was pretty thoroughly damaged.
Suspension is robust, and if you do have to replace something you can forget about it for a long time.
Cons: These V70s have a large turning circle, where another car turns in one go, you'll only turn in two.
In the back it's a bit of a squeak if driver is at least 1.80m in front and push the seats back, in the back it's a squeak, especially if you're also around 1.80, but that's probably because the trunk is so big.
I didn't like the front pillars, if you make a sharp left turn with a pedestrian crossing just beyond, for example, the pillar blocks your line of sight, you can miss the pedestrian.
To change the bulb on the left-hand front lamp, you need to remove the air intake tube with all the attachments, otherwise you can't really get at the bulb from the inside, physically you can stick your hand in there, but to feel the bulb hit its place and force it with a latch is very difficult.
The car is already old and it is quite difficult to find a live one, most of them are already very tired and unmaintained.
