In 2011 I moved the nose of my V70 R sideways about a yard via a creeper and a longboard skateboard. No front wheels on, jacks, in the middle of substantial suspension work. It broke the skateboard :( but I nosed the nose over successfully.
Narrow garage.

This was a tough one. That must have been NLA a long time ago.

Re: 06+ v6 vs v8
The XC90 T6 was a fiasco. Many of the transmissions blew because they were not rated for 4700 lbs.

Anyone going to watch Denver-KC MNF tonight?
It's a Big Deal™ IMHO. Wondering if anyone is going to tune it.

Re: Looking at a 745 - advice?
Overall I think you're on the good side of the gamble with this car if it's priced well. Did you check engine oil for level and color? Does it have service records? Service records since new would be asking for a lot, but maybe the last 5 or 10 years would be a normal expectation.
