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?

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.

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!
