2004 Volvo V70 Aktiv review from Australia and New Zealand
"Luxury and practicality in one package"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing so far.
General comments?
The 2.5 turbo is smooth & has plenty of power.
Extremely comfortable.
One of the best sound systems I've heard in a long time.
Cabin is very well insulated from outside road noise.
A very practical family vehicle.
Kids love the booster seats.
Feels solid on the road.
Handles extremely well for it's size.
Fuel consumption is great on highway, but a little heavy around the city.
