Not a single issue with this vehicle!!! I actually wrote this review as my perfect history with this car is not showing up in the True Delta ratings. full 2006 Volvo V70 review More the durability than reliability. I fully expect the car to go at least 200K, or more.
Is the 2005 Volvo V50 a good car?
Other service has been routine. It handles well, accelerates well and gets 25 to 28 mpg day in and day out.
