Some people a full of sh*t.

I had a P2 V70 and when I bought the P3 there was the usual tripe about "it's not a proper Volvo. It won't even last 100K miles."

My 11 year old V70 D5 has just clocked 208,000 miles. The only time it has caused me worry was when the oil cooler blew about 1000 miles ago.

It has cost me £70 to get through an MOT once (drop links) and recently £430 for the oil cooler fix which was mostly labour. Other than that it has cost me nothing other than consumables.
