2001 Volvo V70 review from North America
"This is a great car and I can't wait to buy another one!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Sunroof leak; dealer corrected
roof rails discoloured; dealer replaced
engine mount worn; dealer replaced.
General comments?
We bought this car primarily for safety and it has not disappointed. When a van full of teenagers ran into me at a stop light, I couldn't believe how much damage was done to the car and how little I felt. We will continue to buy Volvos.
Great experience with the dealer.
