Hello, it’s time again. My moose needs new hooves and I have the following 2 tires in the narrow selection. Bridgestone Potenza RE050 Fuld Carat Exelero Both should have the size 225 45R17.http://www.bridgestone.de/articles.asp?ID=10770http://www.fulda.com/…/productvideo.html Unfortunately I haven’t found so many tests about the Fulda tires yet. Maybe someone has already gained experience with one of the two tires on a V70?

The first pictures of my big elk on April 1st As promised, there are the first pictures of my elk already today because of April 1st. Unfortunately, the elk is not quite finished yet. However, there is still something missing from Schickschnack. (Flying, wheel cover, heico 2-pipe and SH but otherwise he already looks G..l.). Had to fix that the elk optically and sound technically already is an eye-catcher (sometimes it is already embarrassing). For picture chef briefly the data. XC90, EXE, Magic-Blau mettalic, inside andr., slide, 20″ flaps, stepping boards, sliding roof, 7-seater and Heico 2-pipe (mid April) and much more. A useful driving report is only available when I can rip my wife’s elk away. Now the first pictures ….

Hello, one of you knows when Inscription will be available in Germany and especially at what price. I get my XC90 D5 GT in November and would like to change my order regarding Inscription. Thank you!

Hi Together, today my original Volvo adapter came from USA. Since I have a Navi, the US Spec history did not work. In Germany the adapter is probably not yet available (according to my friend). Greetings Torsten picture1: I am supposed to laugh or cry. The bus cable, that is allegedly not available in Germany either…

An article in the Times (Driver Health: Danger, incorrect use of your car can damage your health) quotes a study in which car seats were assessed according to health aspects. After that, the Volvo V70 wins before the Mercedes S-Class. How many types have been tested and how serious the study is, is not taken from the article. It is also recommended that car seats are not set completely vertically, but have a slope of 10% (against the vertical, not the horizontal ;-). It is not specified which model year of the V70 has been taken into account.

Dear Volvisti, after six months as a voyeur I have just registered and want to torment you with some banalities to my S 60 Move 2.4 (125 kw), EZ 03/05 (black, leather grey, car, technical package, telephone fixture, RTI etc.) with now approx. 17 tkm: As a changer of an MB C 180 (W 203) with 129 hp, the S60 seemed to me at first like a rocket; meanwhile, however, the higher performance is only available in a rather high speed range. In the end, I wonder if the V70 with the smaller 2.4 liter machine would have been the better choice. The turning circle of the car is a single katrastophe and makes rides in narrow parking garages a sweat-driving adventure; the same applies to the in- and out parking. Probably the 225 tires do your own… The phone is rather mediocre, the operation of the RTI was at first very needy. With all the criticism: The car has, as my neighbor said, character and not every corner.

At last! Could pick up my new one today! First impression: just great Here are some details: quality and workmanship absolutely top. Beautiful thick leather in great color. Seat is a bit harder than serial seats (no sport seat!). After all I have read here, I had some concerns about the new seats and the new headrests, but I am 1.90 and the support is optimal for me (and I’m not lying while driving) steering wheel feels great and looks sporty. Real wood decor is nice discreet and harmonizes perfectly with the interior! …I just noticed that …. Conclusion: !!! Greetings from S60T5 – which puts in just a few pictures! Alas here still other details: Summum / Lunargold / Marquis-rot / 2.5T / PDC V+H etc.

Hello, someone here has experience with Nankang tyres or similar low-cost tyres on the S60R. Must buy new tyres again and wants to do something cheaper this time. The tyres are faster down as you can look. If someone already has the new bushings for the rear wheels in because of the prob. of sidestepping, must on 25.07 to the workshop. brings what.

Hello elk driver, after a few weeks of silent, secret reading I have now signed up.! After an A6 avant 2.4 I had discovered my weakness for a pickup and posthumously bought an L200 with a fairly good equipment (automatic, hardtop, auxiliary heating, modified front grill, Navi, AHK etc.). This I drove to the full satisfaction until the day my better half came home with the message that we are soon to “DRITT”. Narrally great joy and……in the 6th month the realization….we need another car. Too bad for the pickup..! Well what a new car???? So during the daily trips to customers and projects a whiny look out and suddenly stood in front of a Volvo car house he…in beautiful black, my V70 AWD HS7, with a very good equipment for me – Allrad, Geartronic, Volleder, Navi, HU850 with a rain sensor, brake assistant seat heater, stand-up heater, etc. And I have bought the best of a Tunuff.

Today my elk had his wellness day. In addition to 180.000 inspection and recall action for the cooler fan, a new foglight was due because of glass break. And since we often talk about the quality of the friendly ones here, I have to report something positive. The wellness day for my elk with Italo slippers was booked at the car dealership Ellers in Osnabrück. And they gave it all again. He feels again: Wow! Like on the first day. I have the feeling that now I leave everything standing … Well: almost everything. I also found the return action interesting. After five years … respect. BMW and Co would have given themselves this for sure, already after a year probably. Jens
