A lot of good and bad about this year model, but I am looking at one today and need any advise as to weather I should take the plunge. Owner is third and says the only problem is shaking in front end and needs new tires. Could be axles or what else?
My 98V70 just burnt a valve and this 2002 is at$2500.00.
Thoughts on this.

That's what I have read and heard. Guy never called back today as he said he would, so maybe a good thing. Hope to look at a 98 V70 this week, so at least it is something I have worked on.JRL wrote:More bad than good

Shane - there is a V70 1998 manual dead in the P2 forum, due to a bad manual transmission, with low miles. Its drivable. Maybe the two of you should talk about a deal to get a running car and part out the other...just a thought.
