Hey! In fact, yesterday I was able to put my family in the CLK (the Roman baby safe fits surprisingly well and simply! No belt problem!) in order to finally close my XC 70 in the arms. First impression: I think with a lot of good talk my best wife of all will at some point tamely realize that it is MY car, not hers. This morning I was allowed to drive it for the first time. Very nice car, is fun to drive with it. But it is probably true! h still too early for a first conclusion. Only a few spans have come to light on the back seat. One has to tilt the Roman slightly in order to be able to attach it properly. But you can’t have everything… I’ll see that I still have to register on the elk card today. (Good keyword, right? Now BoisBleu can set up the http://www.webcheck.de/component/option,com_frontpage/Itemid,1/ here!) Until later Monty

Hiho together, the days I had the opportunity to test an XC90 D5 in detail (about 500 km). The route was about 30% highway, 20% highway with speed limit 100-130 and 50% highway without limit. Complete route very winding with uphill and downhill. So to make it short the KNALLER… Since I was very spoiled by the engine of my last car (BMW 3.0 Diesel) I had serious concerns about the driving performance. It was already written a lot about it. But I can You calm down, the D5 is relatively fast. Up to 80 a bit grumpy, but for over 2 tons ok. Up to 160 you can keep up quite well on the highway. After that it becomes a bit tough. From 200 is then finished. More I could not test because of the winter tires, would certainly not have gone much. So I would not have thought it possible, am very positively surprised. The automatic switches almost imperceptibly with silky soft transitions. Car is very quiet, at 180 only a weni g Wind noise, you can talk normally. Chassis and road position very comfortable, no problem in fast driven motorway curves. Top brakes. Seats and ergonomics perfect. Strange is the Navi. The female voicers are totally annoying, which takes a bit of an important part. The guy in the RTI sounds like the computer game, which threatens with the attack of the next crossing. The graphics with double screen is very well done. The maps are unfortunately a bit flat, that can be other The operation is extremely simple and intuitive. Criticism of the Navi: (1) When I enter a road without a house number as a destination, the RTI seems to accept the middle of the road as a final destination. However, if I want to go to house number 1, and then somewhere else without ever reaching the middle of the road, the destination remains in the road plan. When calculating the next destination, strange distances and times are displayed. Only when the last track point has been deleted, i (2) I have unfortunately not found the function of the address book. I can enter my most important goals in an address book with other manufacturers and do not have to re-enter them again and again. Sure, if I start the same address again and again I should know the way, you are right, but if I always start the known destination from a new direction the Navi is helpful. Yes *RTFM* already clear, maybe I should first read the manual and then my criticisms are done. Unfortunately I never had a Volvo RTI and in the XC90 only little time. Anyway, I’m sure to have ordered the right car !! Look forward to your new elk, it’s worth it !

So dear community, now I tell you a little bit about my Volvo: since October 2013 I am proud owner of a V70 II 2.4 diesel (DPF incl.) with quite a lot of equipment and heating with then 150 000 km, built in 2007. I bought the moose from a family father. The condition was just perfect, checkbook maintained timing belts and water pump he had made, so there were no objections for me not to buy the car. I slept over another night and then he stood At some point on the doorstep. As far as everything was going well I thought. First the elk got new wiper blades for about 20 € from Ebay. So after 5000 satisfied km, came the right front wheel bearing. I immediately had both front change approx. 700 €. In the month after that the throttle flap had to be changed, as she was over and the engine on the highway always jumped into the emergency running program approx. 895 €. In January 2014 he got then rubber foot mats (approx. 77 €) for the winter original from Volvo – was already in the workshop because the ignition lock (400 €) was defective and the engine could not be started any more. No matter I thought, can happen. Because I am on the road quite a lot he got a hands-free device from Parrot with the suitable adapter from Kuda – together about 180 €. In March I had the car then at the large customer service for 556 € because the last was at approx. 145 tkm and now he has already 169 tkm. Grom USB adapter for about 145 €. But now it’s finally over I thought, enough or already too much invested!!! And of course now something had to come! At the beginning of April the right spring is broken, car had to be towed again – I was really through with the car now! Too bad I thought to myself – now he has to go away – these costs really get on my ass!! For a new spring at the front right the friendly wanted now 562 €. So I already thought about the sale and want Since I already put 3535 EURO (within 6 months) in the moose I prefer to keep it. Old Swede there he was lucky again. The money is simply not getting again!! And since he stays with me now until he falls apart, the day before yesterday still gave new summer tires from Hankook about 400 Euro. But it must also be said that all repairs have been carried out by a Volvo specialist workshop. Maybe I now have a But now I think it’s over. I’ve done almost everything new. But a car is just a single wear and tear part that always has to be invested in, and with a driving performance of about 25000 km a year you can notice that even more intensely. In this sense Happy Easter to you Allen!!
