    Volvo is one of the last manufactures to offer station wagons in the USA/ Station wagons offer many advantages, so you don't need a big SUV

      I agree. I had to help move my sister across country, with my wife and 6 months old. I was able to load everything in our Mazda 6 wagon. We couldn't even put half of it in her Saturn Vue

    My daily is a 2005 V70R. It's such a great vehicle. Biggest gripe is the turning radius. It's horrible. Pickup truck bad. Mine needs some work before I offer it up to you for review.
    But 300 HP Turbo 5 cylinder with AWD in a well-proportioned wagon is such a treat. It pulls very well and handles great. Everything is built so well. Just have to deal with the quirks of having a 20 year old European car.

      Funny because my C30’s turning circle is also really bad

    The V in V70 stands for versatility. So yes, you nailed it in your summary. I love these cars.

      Audi as well. They still have a 5 cylinder engine (it's probably the last modern 5 cylinder engine left) in the RS3.

    My folks had an XC70 from the same year - the cross country version, with AWD and a raised ride height. It was a great car.

  • @matthewsanders6499
    @matthewsanders6499 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I f-in' LOVE Volvo. They're so cool man. Long live turbo wagons. (Edit: I have two of these inline 5-cylinder engines, a turbo in the C30 hatchback and a naturally aspirated S40 manual trans. CAN CONFIRM that the engine growl is completely unique, and so is the low, torquey grumble they make at the bottom end. Imagine 230 boosted hrsprs in a hatch, that thing cooks.)

  • @swizzlstyx
    @swizzlstyx 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    These were cool because they could range from a utilitarian car to a luxury car based on how they were spec'd. I had a non-turbo with cloth manual seats in college and it was near Toyota levels of reliable. On the flip side you could get the V70R with 300hp, AWD, and active suspension. Obviously way more exciting but you'd need to spend thousands on maintenance each year. Modern-day volvos have gone so far upmarket that they don't make a single car that's reliable, utilitarian, or affordable anymore (at least in the US).

    • @JohnSmith-wx9wj
      @JohnSmith-wx9wj 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I rented a mid range xc90, and I wouldn't say it was exceptionally luxurious. Any loaded mainstream brand would be as nice.

    • @cameronlovesevolve
      @cameronlovesevolve 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      It really does have that toyota durability feeling for sure. I trust that its gonna start up and get me where i need to go every time i turn the key.. leaking oil, occasional transmission issues and random bouts of rough idles included - i just trust it.

    @tobias_dahlberg 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

    My daily driver is a V70 2.4 NA, makes 170hp and with the 5-spd manual it's a really nice car. This car is of the "classic" type which is the last model year of a generation of cars, so it is model year 2008. Just over 100,000 miles on mine and other than regular maintenance and stuff you would expect, it's been dead reliable.

    • @wilemr1337

      how is it living with the 5-speed? I'm planning on getting a similar car, how is it on fuel consumption? How's the RPM at highway speeds? Have you had any suspension issues, I've seen a lot of people talk about that.

    • @tobias_dahlberg
      @tobias_dahlberg 2 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @@wilemr1337 At 75 miles per hour (120km/h) RPM is at exactly 3000 in 5th gear. I'm getting a fuel consumption of around 6-10L/100km. 6 on country roads, 10 in city driving. Highway is somewhere in between, say around 8l/100km, so roughly 30mpg. That's what I am getting at least when driving smoothly. I haven't had any suspension issues other than the back springs needed to be replaced because they were rusting out. Other than that it has been fine.

      @@tobias_dahlberg Thank you for the quick answer! 3000 RPM at 120 feels very reasonable, and the fuel consumption really isn't as bad as I thought either! Good to hear that the suspension has held up. Sounds like a really nice car, might need to get one if a nice one comes up. Thank you again!

    I love how you said just tap the dash. And you just form a bond. My 04 2.5T v70 is "LITERALLY" the mechanism of fine tuning and engineering. The retro feel of the tape deck down to the defroster button. Which is like god blowing on your windshield when it's frozen solid. It's just a vehicle of it's own. It's hard to explain. But you Volvo fans know what I mean.

  • @cameronlovesevolve
    @cameronlovesevolve 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I drive a 2001 V70 2.4T 190hp and you summed the car up very well! It can be sporty and fun, it can be quiet comfortable and luxurious .. it can be a workhorse, a transporter or a weekend warrior. I got it with 180,000 miles almost 3 years ago and today its about to click over 230,000. I have loved every trip in my V70! The p2 body style is getting cooler by the minute if you ask me.
