coming from the s40 c30 side
Hi guys just some advice really
Just sold my c30 2.0d and have previously owned s40's t5 2.0d I was looking at used c70 d5's but then decided to go with a v70 d5 57 reg 07 registered geartronic, as i can fit my mountain bike in without all the hassle Can anyone tell me if there is any difference in the 07 to the 08 model as both look nearly identical and if you can get the sport spoiler for the boot (i had a v70 t5 go past me today looking rather nice with one on) Also is it possible to get a dual exhaust for the rear as well Many thanks and I cant wait to get it |

A 57 (if not a private plate) will most likely be a phase 2 V70.
An 08 could be an early phase 3 or late phase 2. Does it have the floating dash and electric press button handbrake? Ive seen phase 2's on 57 plates though so there is a bit of a cross over. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volvo_V70 which will show you the timeline and changes etc. Phase 3's can get twin exhausts but it's not a simple change. It also requires some rear bumper changes to accomodate (I believe). Ive got the spoiler added to my P3 now and it does enhance the look.
