    6:15 The grab handle that is made out of metal is perfect for northern European climates. If it is still cold after a drive, you should drive a bit more before getting home.. Only Swedes/Norwegians/Finns will get me...

    Great video! I am buying my friends 2004 XC this week. Previous Volvo experiences have been 142's, 145, P1800, and now a 122S Estate. Never had any newer Volvo's than a 1995 940. Miss them all. Great cars!

    I have an '07, I bought it in 2012 with 90k miles and I absolutely love it. It was my dream car at the time, which was odd for a single 34-year-old LOL. It was a great car, I loved the seats and it was super practical as a mountain bike hauler for camping trips. I only got it stuck once, it was in a foot of snow and I high centered on a snow bank, pretty much all four wheels were off the ground. It's pretty long in the tooth now at 233k miles, all the little things are adding up and while the motor runs great, it needs more work than the cars really worth. Even though I have a newer 4Runner, I miss commuting in the Volvo, I'm actually thinking that I want to pick up a 10 year old P3.

    make sure you maintain the haldex pumps and AWD systems, they tend to fail on these cars rendering them FWD

    How the f, have I not seen this gem of a video before. I had an exact same xc70, even the same color. Different wheels tho. Absolute machine. I reluctantly replaced it for a 2016 xc60, but I’ve grown to like that even more!

  • @Deidre_H

    I have 2004 xc70 with 96k miles. Just had to have the shifter replaced, which they couldn't find and had to get off eBay. Unfortunately now the manual drive on the left no longer works. The automatic is fine.

    Very pleased with my D5 XC70, far more economical but similar power. A ridiculously useful car and far more practical than most would expect.

    Sweet ride. I just got a 2010 XC70 T6 when my prior car finally died. I’m loving it, it gives up nothing in terms of what I do in mild off-road (I had a compact SUV before) but it’s way more comfortable, responsive, and quick through corners than a typical SUV. And the long wheelbase plus the excellent AWD means winter is a joke to the Swede.

    Yet they tend to eat oil, have AC issues like recently my AC clutch plate on my 2006 xc70 FELL OFF and power steering leaks. However they are a beast as I somehow drove with NO OIL for god knows how long and there are no ENGINE issues this far

    There was a more logical time when someone following the 2015 trend of plaid shirt, facepubes, skinny jeans, and nerdlook would have been embarassed. Not anymore. It's 2023.

    I have the same exact car same color 260,000 miles original engine transmission everything and she still running down the road perfectly. If you’re not a Volvo person you probably should be. I paid 1500 bucks for it in great shape. I even got a computer with Vida on it and a dice unit go ahead hate me.
