Saw your post on the XC60 forum there and thought I'd give you some moral support! My father came close to buying a V70 back in 08, but we didn't quite get there - too expensive for an auto over here - and we were pretty relieved given the D5 belt issue. But the price is coming back down to earth now, and today Volvo mentioned that they're sticking that new 1.6 T4 engine into it with ok CO2 levels (tax is high here), so the V70 might come back on the radar when that's been bedded in. As you mentioned, it's so quiet here - I often have a look because I'd like to see how the high mileage cars are fairing - but maybe it being quiet means that there are few problems with the car? Or maybe they're just really boring!?!?
