Hi guys,
Just want to share my appreciation on what an ace car Volvo produced in the V70 T5.
I have owned this car just coming on 3 years now, and in that time it's been nearly faultless. I know people moan about the ME7 but I think it's brilliant. I'm not one to mod my cars and in actual fact I run it on a shoestring, but in all those 3 years all that's failed is a MAF sensor when I first got it, and after a quick search on ebay and 30 quid later she has been running OK (touch wood) ever since.
She has just gone through her MOT at 115000 miles with just a couple of ARB links and a weld up of an exhaust mount, other than that she is sound, all original.
She may not handle or go like some of yours, but as a daily that can carry everything plus the kitchen sink in comfort I don't think it can be beat.
Anyway, had a couple of beers and just wanted to show my appreciation of a brilliant motor, and when this one dies, will defo be getting another one, maybe a D5 though as fuel costs are just stupid.
Cheers
Paul
