  • In love with the interim solution (presentation of my V70)

    Moin, my name is Chris and I have now since October a Volvo V70 II 2.4 with 140 Ps, from 2005. I bought this only as an interim solution because we were looking for a Mercedes E500 station wagon and spontaneously found none. Up to here everything normal, we bought the Volvo with 369,000km. Now he has 376.000km and I LOVE Him. We were with it on a short vacation and it is incredible how good this car, despite the age and the mileage drives. My wife and i I’ve had so many nice moments with the Swedes, I just can’t give it up anymore. Last week, a nice E 500 T was offered… and I refused because I don’t want to give up the Volvo. Now, of course, I have a problem, I have to make the Volvo “more beautiful”. And I know that it doesn’t make any sense economically, but… if the engine gets up at some point, can I install a Volvo Turbo engine with relatively little effort? in plan was now the following: driving a car, making optics, chassis and interior perfect, by the way building a V70 II Turbo engine and then when the day X comes just make a motor swap. Thanks for the answers

  • Which Volvo is the best?

    Hello together, I currently own a Renault Clio BJ 2004 and my parents have a V70 D5 Geartronic, in front of a V70 TDI. Now I am also looking for a Volvo and had gucked into a C70 2.4 with automatic and luxury package. But after a long time and a test drive I decided that the car is probably a little impractical and that I was already a little old for almost 10 years. Now I searched the Internet again and four other Volvos The Volvos:suche.mobile.de/vehicles/showDetails.html (there is currently an action there. I would then decide for the 1000 day warranty).mobile.de/vehicles/showDetails.html (is probably the most modern car)suche.mobile.de/vehicles/showDetails.htmlsuche.htmlsuche.de/vehicles/showDetails.htmlsuche.htmlsuche.htmlsuche.de/vehicles/showDetails.htmlsuche.de/vehicles/showDetails.htmlsuche.htmlsuche.htmlsuche. Motor with Torbo) What do you think is the best one? How do the motors differ from the performance and how are the size differences between the S80 and the S60 and the S40 respectively? Are the prices suitable so ok?

  • Volvo V70 Built 2003 EasyFix+MaxiCosi CabrioFix

    Good evening, with us has announced for the middle of the year offspring. 🙂 Well, now it’s about moving our little angel safely in the moose through the large, wide world. We have considered the MaxiCosi CabrioFix with the associated EasyFix station. In the Volvo the required Isofix recordings are available on the rear, outer center seats. It’s actually about this combination of the baby shell and associated Isofix base for our moose is allowed. Lei I find on the Maxi-Cosi page only the information about the three-point seatbelt. Does any of you even have this combination and use it successfully? Thank you already in advance, wish everyone a nice evening, greeting Basti

  • When new XC90 model?

    Hello and a nice day @all, can someone give me information about the release of a new Volvo XC90 model? So when to expect a new model? 2009/2010? Can I wait so long? 😉 🙂 Hehehe… I’m excited about the new X5 in white or the Range Rover Sport!

  • S60 D5 (185 hp) takes 2nd place in the AUTO Vergeichstest

    Hello municipality, it happens rarely enough that German motor journalists recognize the advantages of our elk (want/may). In today’s edition of “AUTO” a comparative test of the Diesel-Limos by Alfa, BMW, Toyota and just Volvo appears. To make it short: 1st place: 3 BMW (2.0 D with 163 hp) 2nd place: S60 D5 (185 hp) 3rd place: Toyota, model name forgotten (2.2 D with 177 hp 4th place: Alfa 159 (2.4 D with 200 hp) The 2nd place for the year-old Volvo does not surprise (me) at all, to the The new D5 really declassifies the others, whereby the 200 HP Alfa can not play out its nominal performance advantage in any way due to massive overweight and unharmonious performance. The test repeatedly shows the dilemma that the S60 and its backpack twin brother V70 do not fit into a “scooter”. The S60 has to compare with a small agile BMW 3 (between VW Jetta-Klas) The V70 is technically identical with the Audi A6, the E-Class and the five-speed BMW. Both cannot function objectively. Ulli

  • Enquire for guarantee

    Hello town, I bought a Volvo V70 BiFuel, Bj, first registration 12/2005 cheaply about 150 km away from my home town. It is a used car dealer. According to the contract at least 12 months warranty. Now I did not notify my dealer if the gas control is defective, but immediately steamed to my Volvo branch. Then I left the whole thing behind …. Repeeratur was on 17.03. Repeeratur was on 17.03. Repeeratur of the accumulated Ko 170€ now takes place in November. Now finally the question, can I easily assume that this will still work? Or do I have a formal error about the non-notification and the very late request? Thank you very much.

  • A newcomer with a C 70 2.5 T

    Hello together, since I am new here I would like to introduce myself briefly. I am 39 years old and a bit car crazy. Had already a lot of cars, but not yet Sweden. I recently drove a Benz, which however did not make me happy. Reperaturstau etc. Just got me today a 1998 ́iger C 70 2.5 T. Very nice car as I find. Now during the journey home on the highway made me the following stutzig: The car has an automatic transmission and somehow feels It turns on as if it only switches the first three gears and not in the fourth. At approx. 100 km/h it turns about 3000 tours. At 160 km/h we are then already in the range of approx. 5000 tours. Maybe I am also wrong and everything is completely normal and I make myself a monkey at the beginning. I mostly drove larger six- or eight-cylinders. There were correspondingly less speeds at 100 km/h. I think you certainly have an explanation for me. Thank you and greeting Z corner

  • E10 . Kneel of politicians before lobbies

    And once again a public knee fall of the politicians, or were they bought again, from the dear Lobbie ? Jaja it was only a problem of splendour, otherwise nothing, and because the camp was full, the stuff must now be gone. I ask myself now honestly, how long do people still do the shit with. Politker bought by Lobbie enslave us, and everyone is watching and raunting. Either the world is really too good, or everyone has another gossip that can be so submissive to this. And if tomorrow’s offer an E 100 for 3rd-/liters, you buy the then also ? ADAC and Co, are also all bought, which the only ones the some of the actions could get, do nothing and print to the politicians nnun also free 19 million Proschüren !!! Just to vomit what EU, Lobbie, Politik ect. with us. with us ! Would I really want the wretches in Colombia, as far as this is concerned……… Where is the Sniper ?

  • What’s behind the speaker depth?

    Hi, short question: does someone happen to know what is behind the original speaker depth in the door of a 850’s? Would you like to install better loudspeakers, but they might be a little deeper than the available space. Now I would like to cut out the sheet metal with a Dremel to get a little deeper. How much air would be behind it up to the disc? Is this possible or should I rather leave it? The door insulation is also such a question. Would you like to use Alubutyl to make the virde Is the dismantling a big problem? Thanks already for the help. mfg Frank

  • For the sake of interest, sniffed past the 850er 10V sucker

    Moin, today there was a trip to Bremen and there we just looked at a 850 out of interest, because over short or long a new old car is supposed to be on the yard. Since I am so enthusiastic about my V70, the thought came to us, maybe also to look after a 850. I have to say that we were there today without appointment and also did not make a test drive. (The latter is necessary anyway with the following lines.) Advertised as a garage car in very good Zustan d. Just one is the reality and the other is the reality that you rhyme together. What you can do for the car, however: the interior is like licked. But that also shows once again that it is enough to find a stupid under 20 who doesn’t look at the car from below and can be blinded by the shell to get such a slingshot from the yard. I doubt that the car arrives at home with the massive oil loss at all. HU, by the way, had just new. he blind, deaf, bribed, or all together. But I was skeptical from the beginning… If interested there is the ad per PM, which is definitely not worth looking at. Greeting Julian
