98 V70 T5 manual will do 151mph V70-XC70 1998

FYI,

I have a older Canadian car magazine that tested a 1998 V70 T5 (5 speed manual) and they got it to 242 km/h (roughly 151.25 mph) verified by radar.

Also it might be worth mentioning that the test car had been equiped with V-rated tires (rated up to 240 km/h) so it's possible that the car comes with a limiter for roughly 240 km/h.
