1998 Volvo V70 XC review from North America
"Outstanding!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The only thing I have replaced on my V70 XC in the last 400, 00 are:
Rear shocks (used: 200.00 cad).
Regular brake maintenance every 60 to 100 thousand km.
Timing belt (40.00 cad, installed myself).
Oil changes every 4000 km.
ABS module (I resoldered the board and reinstalled, price $0).
