V70 or S60? 2005
Which is the better car?
I am looking at 05 S60 with 100k for 3,000 and a 05 V70 with 87k just popped up on CL this morning for 3700. I own the V70 2005 non turbo but she has dead motor at 315k.

Re: Thinking of buying a 05 S60 2.5t
Picking up the S60 Thursday from seller and taking to a indy shop with great reviews that works only on Volvo cars. If the inspection is good and maintenance records are good I will buy..... BUT WAIT! I just found a 2005 V70 on CL this morning with 86k for $3950. One owner, looks great in and out. S...

Re: I think I have a major problem. My Volvo died 300k

I think I have a major problem. My Volvo died 300k

I did a history on the car. 1 owner. Clean on inside and out. No accidents. History showed timing and engine mounts done aroun...
