Rides Like a Go-Cart

...Yes the V70R can do it all. Absolutly it is an amazing machine.
But, however the ride is very rough. You hit small bumps and it's like terrible even on comfort mode.
I put a decent dent in the back rim just going over railroad tracks too fast. I sold my V70R within 6 months of having it, just couldn't handle the bumpy ride...

V70-T5 2011 Terrific car bought used
Source: Cars.com

...We are Toyota owners too, much more reliable, but comfort, speed, space, etc. etc. is so much better. The heating and AC in the Northeast not comparable to other cars, it's great. The seats, well, the best ever. For long travel it is really fast and very comfortable. With the snow, the snow tires make all the difference, no need for a more expensive cross-country. After all these years, besides the usual exterior scratches, the car looks excellent. Just changed for the first time the battery.Now I am moving abroad and have to sell it, it is too expensive to register and go through the...

Almost Perfect

...The Volvo V70 is almost perfect. The exterior is a little retro, However the interior is great. The accleleration is great, thank to the turbo!...

Never ever would even think of a wagon !
Source: Edmunds

...I bought this car (my first Volvo) after having a Lincoln Navigator (over- priced piece of crap), I LOVE THIS CAR
!!! It is fast, comfortable and sexy for station wagon (after limo tinting the windows),
I AM NO soccer Mom, even though I have 3 kids, But, when people I know pick on my choice I take them for a ride (or let them drive it) AND well, they have a different perspective.
Test drive one you'll love it !! The ONLY down fall my Husband is 6'01" and he said that it is tight for him in the drivers seat,But that it is fun to drive.
Ask a Dealer to crash pictures AMAZING...

My favorite car so far

..."I really love this car. It handles well enough to be zippy city car, but is just sweet on the open road.
The safety and reliability of a Volvo plus the practicality of a station wagon - brilliant car."...

Great drive

...Excellent car. Previous car was Passat Wagon. Although
we like manual transmission of Passat (manual not available with higher output engine) the 2.5t is fun to drive and has a comfortable ride on the highway as well. Plenty of room with 3rd row seat...

Bring on the snow!

...3rd Volvo, very happy so far. Interior takes a little getting used to, much different than older wagons.
Stereo is wonderful, instrumentation plain but perfect, great ergonomic positioning.
I have sport seats and highly recommend them, super comfortable, but aren't all Volvo seats? Wagon is as versatile as ever, superb room and hauling capacity.
2.5T engine is a torque monster! Big improvement over the 2.4 in every area but fuel economy. GREAT ENGINE! The Haldex system is best in class. Effortless handling of snow and muck here in VT...

V70R- bargain performance
Source: Edmunds

...It's a great car and a great highway cruiser but ditch the stock tires which only last 15K and get some pilots.
I had an audi allroad before which had better build quality but the v70r seats are the best in the industry and the mileage is much better here. the ride is rough...

My 2001V70 T5M
Source: Edmunds

...I was brousing this site and read the Edwards road test review of a loaded T5 and thought they were talking about a differant car.
Ours is now 2 1/2 years old and as tight as new, with ZERO rattles, ZERO poor fits and no dust intrusion whatsoever over our many dirt driveways.
The brakes are firm and linear, the power strong and the mileage good. I don't know what you drove, but it sounds like a wreck. And as for the howling tires, did you check the pressure?...
