2005 Volvo V70 D5 Auto

[ploppy]

Hello one and all.....

Need your thoughts...

Ok, the wife is doing longer journeys now and her current 2006 V70 T5 is a bit thirsty ,, even with fuel prices at a low.

She is looking at a 2005 Volvo v70 D5 AUTO ,,, she still needs the room for her kit which isnt heavy just bulky and loves the V70

Is a V70 D5 going to be that much better on fuel,,, any problems with auto boxes on them,,, she wants auto !!

Cheers all

Le Plop !

I've found my S60 D5 to be very economical, half the fuel costs of the T5. I think you'll find the V70 D5 to be much better on fuel compared to the D5 although I imagine the Auto would be less efficient than the manual.

Or during the day when you get sent home half day and know the missus won't be home until 7pm so you have plenty of time to dress up and use makeup and heels and video yourself.....

On long journeys you won`t feel much defference in mpg from auto to manual,just make shure there is a full service history and get one as low miles as poss,change the auto fluid.
