Looks exactly like mine. What's the difference between a '95 and a '94?

Mine has no roof rails, wheels are the same, seats are tan, color might be 601 Classic Red, rear badge is slightly different
(I sanded off the silver). What are the mechanical differences? Mine is the T-5 with 225-ish hp.

Beautiful 04' V70 in ash gold and only 73k miles. Seems to be well cared for and the timing belt was done a few years ago. We owned the twin sister until 2 years ago and we sold it with 250k. My younger daughter drove it and she still mourns it.

Cloth seats and no hole in the roof.

Ad writer is proud of the fact there isn't a roof rack.
Looks like an honest ride, started life in CA, when to ME with an enthusiast, lives in NJ now.

They look sharp in white. I waved a lady down in Seattle once and tried to buy hers.

I was pretty sure they didn't get the intercooler until the '84s. They had 165 hp.

Lengthy comment from the seller, an add-on of a stock Volvo setup.
