2007 Volvo XC70 consumer reviews

Runs great, very nice look, and fits my needs. The vehicle also fit within my budget so it made purchasing very easy. I’ve owned a Volvo in the past as well.

135,000 No problems. Replaced headlights because an idiot broke one. Now with clear lenses and nice clear coat paint. Looks like new. No one believes it is a 13 year Old car. Even the interior is in great shape.

My 07 XC70 now has over 180k miles and still looks like new, including the interior. About a year ago I started looking around for a replacement after a few minor maintenance issues but, after 6 months of searching, decided to refurbish and keep driving this one. New strut assy, control arms and ball joints + other steering bits, rear shocks, front CV axles, plugs and coil packs will get you new car ride for around $4-$5k (half again that at the dealer). The next generation, 2008-2015, XC70 had significant problems with the V6 motor that Ford forced them to OEM. After GEELY bought them and provided financing, Volvo developed a sweet 2.0 light boost 4 cyl that made Ward's 10 best engines list. Since Volvo no longer makes wagons, The 2015.5 or 2016 XC70 will likely be my next car - in a couple of years, when used prices get down to my mid teens target.

This is the ultimate SUV that's not an SUV. It's like having a sports car with lots of room to haul stuff. The car handles well and it never looses it's jump from a stop sign. And if you drive at altitude, the turbo give you power that the others only wish for. Lastly, Volvo's last forever and this one is indestructible.

The XC70 is a good wagon to get, but you must stay on top of them. If you stay on top of them then you will enjoy this wagon that is really a small SUV.

Car is very safe, loaded with features and lasts long after 100,000 miles. Great family car. Strong runner!

I looked for a wagon and boy did I find it,couldn't be happier!!!!This looks and feels like a brand new car.The dealer fix a minor problem and so perfect.

Luxurious, loaded & stylish. Dependable, safe & elegant. The best car I have ever purchased, new or used.

I have owned 3 Volvo wagons. The last two have suffered from numerous computer/electrical problems after 100,000 miles. I have had to replace the "computer" twice because it failed. I had to replace the radio because it died. Electrical gremlins have caused the door locks to intermittently fail. Air bag warning light will come on and go off for no reason. Car is dealer serviced but they have not fixed the problems and actually created new problems. Last time I was at the dealership in Charlotte complaining the air bag light was on. When I picked up the car the door locks did not work, the windows did not work and dash lights would not work. Volvo dealerships in Charlotte are horrible. DO NOT BUY A VOLVO!

This is my second XC70 and fifth station wagon with AWD I've owned. By far the best. Seats are living room quality, ride is exceptionally solid. If there's a drawback, it's the MPG - but I find if I'm not a lead-foot, I can get about 20 mpg between city and highway driving. Plan on keeping it for a decade, with the help of my trusty Volvo-centric mechanic.
