  • Delivery times V60

    Here I opened a thread for the delivery times of the new Volvo V60. In the last days I ordered some of them a V60 and the others got a delivery date. You might know this thread by the “delivery times XC60 MJ 2011” thread, which is why I opened it. I did not order one because I got my XC60 DRIVe 4 months ago, but I like the V60 so much that I would order one already. But I will only do that in 3-4 years. So those who ordered a V60 and have their delivery date–> list. LG from Luxembourg Ben

  • Parking assistance

    Hello people, Since parking aid sensors in the painted part of the bumper find ugly, I would like to mount the ones in the gray unpainted part on the lower edge. Now I wonder: why did others not do that. Then the sensors do not work? Greetings from Käskoppenland, Jan

  • Aluminium wheels 16,17,or 18 inch

    Hello Volvisti !! After I have just looked at all the Volvo rim galleries (last posts), I have the following question ?? I have a V 70 140 HP with rims Metis 215er 16 inch Conti Premium Contact and wonder if my elk with Amalthea or Thor looks just as good as the horny T 5 etc. My concerns go there that I have the comfort suspension, so more space in the wheel box and also a level regulation, which I also think creates a little more space. So can it be that my V 70 with Thor or Amalthea looks really “shit” ?????? Greetings to All !

  • Purchase advice and 100 questions about the V70 2.5T

    Hello, I am looking for a young used station wagon, and I like the Volvo V70 in addition to Mercedes E-Class and Audi A6. Now I have found the following model at mobile.de, for which I certainly have 100 questions …. KLICK What do you think of the price for the V70 in general? OK? Bargains? Normal? On the one hand you are looking for the bargain, of course, on the other hand it is sometimes strange that a car like here is for sale after 14 months and only 14,000km. I am a bit confused by the performance data given in the mobile.de advertisement. There is V70 2.5T and 147 kW / 200 hp. Not only with the car, that is also found with other V70 2.5T. On Volvo.de, however, I find the V70 2.5T only with 170 kW / 231 hp. Just the same CO2 emissions, which are not completely unimportant for the taxes: In the mobile.de listing only about 148 g/km, according to Volvo.de at 2.5T 232 g/km. Are there information about mobile.de or Volvo. Although there was not one wrong?

  • XC 60 driver assistance package, here: distance control tempomat

    Hello, in the current “Auto Motor und Sport” is a test report about distance control tempomates of BMW, Audi A5, VW Passat CC and Ford. The system of Ford was rated as not recommended. After Volvo belongs to the Ford Group, it would be interesting to know now whether the decency control tempomate of the driver assistance package is identical to that of the Ford. Who can say anything about this?

  • Make a wish from Volvo for Christmas…

    Christmas time. What do we want from Santa Claus in the far north? Not meant very seriously, but perhaps also interesting for marketing representatives of our brand… So, I wish me motorically in the V 70 the new gasoline ecoboost engines, gladly also with Power Shift. EU 5 is of course a matter of honour. And in this case immediately at Peugeot after, when they give the 2.0 D with 150 hp. With regard to the exterior colors would be an elegant replacement for the unspeakable capergreen metallic overdue. At the very first V 70, there was once a really nice dark olive… Blue tones there is one too much, out there and flying for a beautiful brown metallic. Then the aluminium roof rails are also released for momentum, then also works with the optics against the brand new competitors from the oh so perfect Germany. Inside, yes inside. There is not much to me. But a wish is obvious, the brown leather from the XC 70 is simply combined with the interior in anthracite, certainly does not want to offer the best thing from a good brown view.

  • XC90 turn their backs and become a V70III driver?

    Hello, the fact is: I currently own an XC90 D5 (MY2007), summum, 5-seater, sapphire black, sliding roof, no RTI, 36,000km as a leasing vehicle. The friendly wants to have TEUR 28,500 as a replacement. A new leasing is no longer possible, as this is not an interesting (professional change) for me anymore. Have two daughters (2 and 5 years old) and seek an alternative to my beloved Dickelch. Now I play with the thought to buy a used V70 III for approx. EUR 30,000 or to take over my XC90. What do you think about it? Greet from the Swabian murmeline and already thank you for your constructive opinion!

  • Unlock the automatic air conditioning system in the rear permanently?

    Moin, a short question about the climate control part in the rear: This is apparently locked in the “normal operation”. Is there a possibility to unlock this permanently, so that the climate settings are constantly displayed? Had just a V90 CC with 4-zones – it was permanently unlocked. Unfortunately I found nothing in the manual…

  • Purchase V50 2.0 TDI Kinetic

    Hello Elchreiter, I’m asking for your help Have the choice between a passat 1.9 (2004) with 150 tkm and a V50 2.0 D Kinetic (11/2006) with 165 tkm. Both for 6,000 negotiating base. Since I’m quite undecided and know myself better with VW, I would like to hear your opinion now: 1. The 1.9 engine from the passat is very robust, how does it look with the 2.0 from Volvo? 2. What about the km from the Volvo? My uncle has worked for Volvo in Sweden for over 20 years and he says that the 165 tkm are eig. nix for the Volvo…how’s that right? (someone’s experience with it?) 3. What about the maintenance at Volvo, especially with the model mentioned here and at this age? Will the V50 be more susceptible to damage with age? (one thinks that it’s a family coach and probably well handled it, driven by a lady and checkbook.) Will the V50 be more susceptible to damage with age?
