2001 Volvo XC70 review from North America
"I have been very happy with this car; its handling and its reliability"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Literally nothing of significance has gone wrong with this car.
General comments?
This has among the most reliable cars I have ever owned. Coming on the heels of owning a 1993 Volvo 850 that required significant maintenance, this has been a very pleasant surprise.
The front seats are the most comfortable that I have experienced; much more comfortable than my wife's many Audi's.
The all wheel drive has worked well during the cold and snowy Boston winters, and during rainy weather as well.
