Second Volvo added to stable V70-XC70 2005

Bought an '05 V70 2.5T yesterday with 45K on it.

Brickboarders may recall I started looking for an 850T wagon, since I have learned (mostly here) a bit about the 850T sedan. After exhausting myself trying to find a decent 855T, I switched up to a new Audi A4. I had a deposit on one early this year, but they cancelled the order due to end of MY.

At some point I started researching V70. Recently the '05 caught my eye. Got suckered by the new look and Geartronic. Went to Autotrader and identified 8 within 300 miles. Made one last look at customer reviews of Audi and convinced myself NOT to buy the Audi.

I didn't get the color but I got the car. Mooers in VA looks decent for a car dealer, maybe it was just regional differences (aka Southern hospitality). They weren't so nice they didn't take my money ;)

Thanks again to people who gave input on the 850 wagon and V70's. I hope I won't need to use these services soon for the V70. Time will tell.
