    I just bought one a few months ago. The car has already been 10x around the globe, in it's 10years! Wonderful car to drive. So quite inside. Still all the "gadgets" work fine, keyless entry , distance cruise control, dream in stop and go traffic! Auto dim headlights. Seats still heat and cools fine. The Four-C suspension still doing what it should. Only pity thing is that they have stopped producing them.

    Hi! Probs for this really awesome vehicle. I own a V70 D5 AWD Summum (6 speed automatic gearbox, 5 cylinders, 2.4 liters, 215 hp) of the same generation and must say that this is by far the best car I ever had! Here in Germany, it's quite normal to drive more than 200 km/h on the Autobahn when it's not too busy and my Volvo is simply performing without any hesitation. The max speed so far was around 235 km/h and I still felt safe. This car is a real tank. It's not that fuel-efficient, but I guess that's due to my driving habits. 🙂 Best regards from Germany! Max

    Really lovely car! They are still super expensive over here, even though it's starting to look quite outdated. Or well, it's mostly the headlights. I wish they had updated them on the newer XC70 models, just like they did with the facelift of the C30 back in the days.

      It looks sort of timeless. Wit the tec inside the models from 2012 hold inside, is comfortable to use for the next 5-10 years. Unlike BMW's eyedrive wich was idiotic and like 20 years old cellphone. Like Nokia N-Gage after the BMW had been on sale like two years.
      And the ride on the Volvo. My ol' man has an MK3 V70 and it's superb on these Finnish roads. Everytime i borrow it, i want to drive it to the France or Denmark etc. On one seat.

    • @RA-yb1gx

      It does not look outdated and those headlights match the overall design rather well. The sleek Thors Hammer design would not have matched the classic edgy design language in my opinion and I can confirm that the xenon headlights are quite effective.
      It is actually quite remarkable that this car got a thorough second facelift with the changed front bumper design (the S/V70 even got a different grille and rear bumper design), rear lights, updated interior and information tech and even an update of the biggest AWD 5-cylinder engine to Euro 6 emissions standards (albeit also with the introduction of 4-cylinder engines). The 70 series was overdue for a complete model change around 2013 but with the sale of Volvo to Geely they decided (or were forced) to run the model longer and give it a thorough update. That is why you have all of the amazing aforementioned updates even during the later years of this model. Having the big AWD 5-cylinder diesel engine with EURO 6 emissions standards is quite impressive for such a classic vehicle in the new car world of the mid 2010s.
