2001 Volvo V70 review from Netherlands
"Comfortable and reliable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
There was a squeak in the rear suspension fixed under warranty.
General comments?
Super comfortable vehicle, especially for long trips. Quiet and effortless.
Reasonable fuel consumption given the size of the car, and especially frugal if you drive economically.
There's plenty of room for the teenagers, as well as loading space in the rear.
Handling and braking are great.
If you want a quick performer then go for the bigger motor or turbo, but be prepared for the fuel bills!
