New addition to the family! :-)

Post by jpr0204 »

Hi everyone, after trading in our older 00' V70 X/C SE, I'm happy to say we're back! Just picked up this beautiful, Caspian Blue, 2012 XC70 Premier Plus AWD, 3.2L. This was a 1-Owner car, garaged from new, and all dealer serviced from the first 7,500 service mile right up until the 90K mile service when we just acquired it this morning. Just look at that service history! :-) Glad to be back in the Volvo family and MVS community!

Welcome back! Pretty XC70! I'm interested in how much you like it.
Help keep MVS on the web -> click sponsors' links here on MVS when you buy from them.

Also -> Amazon link
. Click that when you go to buy something on Amazon and MVS gets a cut!

Little soon to say yet as we just picked it up this morning. I will say that the rear end accessory drive is a bit... different. Lol. So far though, ride and runs like a dream.

Awesome choice, looks really nice. My favorite color combo!
If you have VIDA, then take a look at the 150,000 miles maintenance.
I am following same schedule on our XC90 3.2 I6, more here viewtopic.php?f=10&t=90085

Thanks for info and the link xHeart. Some great, detail oriented info there. The car had the 90K service done a few months ago. From what I see in the maintenance manual, should be fairly easy going with just "checks, inspections, and oil changes" for the next few services until the 150K mark.

On the CarFax report, this car had "Induction System service" done twice. What is that?
