We have now had our VOlvo V70 for over two years and are really happy with it. We have two toddlers and the boot space is brilliant for two pushchairs and loads of shopping. The turning circle is really wide and takes a while to get get used to but if you don't mind reverse parking then it's fine. The downside is that when something does go wrong it can cost quite a lot to get it repaired at a Volvo dealer. As ours is now six years old we'll probably start using the local garage to cut the price of repairs. It consumes a lot of petrol but as we mainly use it for longer journeys we don't mind. It's a very comfortable and easy car to drive with large windows so also feels light and spacious. All in all a great family car.

Thank you for your review.... There was a lot more that you could have included in your review to get a higher rating. We are a VOLVO family, we have 4, so we share your enthusiasm and yes they are expensive to put right although all of ours are new and fairly trouble free (fingers crossed) Thanks. J.
