New Volvo Owner
 
Always said i would never own a foreign car, now I'm the proud owner of a 2002 V70 Wagon (non-turbo) with 204K miles. so far i have replaced:

back breaks
both O2 sensors
2 coil packs
complete tune up
oil/ trans oil change
gas cap

so far i gotta say i am impressed, this car does not run like it has 200K+ miles on it! Engine runs smooth and the glove box is the only rattle! if it was a stick, it would be a little closer to perfect! the only thing i can't figure out on this car is how to turn off the A/C, i have the fan set to 0 and the heat turned all the way up and the A/C constantly comes on. i constantly have to turn it off while i am driving. other than that, it's become quite the family truckster!

It looks great! Not sure I can help, but do want to ask you.. is the non turbo really slow? I had an xc90 2.5 turbo and it was a turtle.. I just saw an v70 like yours but newer and am considering it..

it's not fast, but it's not slow. it keeps up with traffic and it gets out of it's way when i need it to. just don't try to race a Mustang! with that being said, compared to the wagon i had before this one, '94 Roadmaster with a slightly modified LT1, it is slow.
