Good Points: Powerful and very nimble. Super sound system.
Bad Points: Tie Rod every now and then need to be replaced...keep those wheels well-balanced. Sun-roof has a rust problem-take it apart and paint it to prevent corrosion. Gas consumption: 12-14l/100 in town, 7.2-8.0l/100 hwy@110km/hr; ie...costly if u're in a hurry.
General comments: The Volvo S70 was best car I've ever had. Had two 740's previously. S-70 is now 10 yrs old with 255,000 km and still goes well. Still running original shocks very acceptable at ordinary highway speeds. Maintenance (to keep it in top shape) about $2500/yr which is much less than the 740's cost.

It did better than the Lexus IS200, Honda Civic type R, Focus RS, Focus ST170, Vectra 3.2v6, it was out classed by the Clio v6 and Honda 2000. Volvos are truely the underdog of the sa ...

I have owned my Volvo S70 T5 SE Auto Executive Car for just over a year. I have wanted to own a T5 for a long time and finally got the funds to purchase one. I had to do a lot of searching becasue of the amount of ex-police examples on the market.
The performance of the T5 engine is something else. It may not be the fastet car off the line but with 330nm of torque it can out accelerate most things once moving. Drive the car hard and you will pay for it in tyres and fuel costs.
The only maj ...
