Default Looking to buy - V70R

Hello to you all.

Newbie here. Thought I'd get involved as this is likely the best place to ask the questions I have, which you've likely heard many a time previously. Essentially, I'm on the look out for a V70R. I've done some homework so I am aware that they are maintenance heavy/need looking after and expensive if/as/when things break; the issues with the haldex, shock absorbers and sunroof seeming to pop up regularly.

If I missed anything that any of you experienced owners know about please do let me know. You won't patronise me, this will be the first performance Volvo I've owned. Everything received with thanks!

The car will likely be maintained by Avalon Volvo in Sywell, not that they know it yet unless (Nick) you're reading this.

If anybody has anything that they're thinking of selling, please feel free to PM me. Currently I'm looking for the following:

2005 onwards
Probably automatic gbx (6 speed ideally)
Either flash green/atacama interior or blue (sonic blue is it)/cream
UK or JDM (ideally JDM)

Thanks for reading and like I say, please do feel free to PM if you're in the market to sell yours and/or comment here anything you think I need to know.

By the way if anyone is after a 2013 V60 R-Design Nav - auto, D3, white, FSH with a huge stack of receipts (including gearbox services), currently just over 200,000 miles - there will be one for sale shortly!

Tom
