V70 V70-XC70 2002

posted by  someone claiming to be Napoleon on  Thu Jan 10 12:22 CST 2002 [RELATED]

I've got nearly 18k miles on my 2001 V70. 5 speed manual and no turdbo. I have had no problems yet, and am getting up to 31mpg. Rides nice, handles ok, and I groove on the sound. We have done a few 700+ mile days, and quite a few 900 mile weeks. Not too uncomfortable for my aging bones.

My general idea when I buy any car is that the less stuff it has, the less stuff there is to break. I got the winter package with heated seats. That came with headlight wiper/washers. They haven't broken yet, but I don't trust 'em. Did not get any traction control, power seats, or automatic climate control. No GPS either.
