Similar problem with V70 2009 MY09
and the official responce as I complained and tried to return the car a week after i recieved it was its a brochure misprint and they will not allow a return
It came to notice when I collected my car i noticed the towbar I ordered and paid for was not fitted and I had to return a week later and believed this was because they were pushed for time as the new reg had just turned
The new towbar had a plate fitted to it giving max wieghts that hugely differed to the booklet ( max towable weight was 2000Kg)
when checked it was advised the V70 shouldnt tow anything over 1200Kg max and not the 1550kg the brochures etc said
so caravan has stood this year and im currently trying to sue Volvo for misleading me
Not looking very good so far im afraid despite trading standards informing them of the consumer laws of UK Volvo are adamant there terms and conditions disclaim all UK law
i kid you not I have the letters from Volvo UK here
I did recieve a voucher though for £250 not bad for 33K car we cant use
