5 Reasons Why I Will NEVER SELL My Volvo V70R! And 1 Reason Why I Would...

[@timoteuslind9080]

Reason 6: quality and rust protection. Reason 7: the comfort of the seats

[@curtiswilson3569]

Both of these!

[@ShiftingLanes]

Oh man the seats. Some of the best ever made for any car. So comfy. The 12 hour trip to the tail of the dragon last year felt like nothing.

[@phillipmiller8388]

@@ShiftingLanes I have done a dozen ski trips DTW to DEN in my xc70. I've run a ton up for hours straight. These cars RIP at 8°F. I have lived for a week at a time in subzero weather using those seats as a bed. These cars are incredible.

[@bwallace5945]

My Father was a Diehard Ford Guy. I owned a 1997 850 T5 and later a 1998 S70 T5 and whenever my father would come by he would say those Volvos have good Bodies and this was in Chicago where they have Brutal Winters and you could destroy a car there in 10 years. I still have the S70 today and at 24 years and it runs and drives fine.

[@matthewgalasso603]

Hi Gregson, I've been following you guys on KZbin since you started with the first V70R. Not a social media person and typically not the type of person to comment publically. Been a Volvo nut for past 10 years being introduced by mechanic friend and driving his beat up 850 turbo wagon with 745,000km or approximately 460,000 miles. I was so impressed, I bought my first one the next day followed by I'm not sure how many others since. Because of the same friend I never ventured out of the P80 style and before watching you guys had no interest in anything newer then a 98. Before watching a few of the first videos my collection was 3 850 turbo wagons and a 98 S70 T5SE. Had to let one of the wagons go and currently unloading the T5SE because just before this Covid thing started I was able to pick up my second V70R. Yes, because of you guys I'm the proud owner of two beautiful Black on Atacama V70R's. Unfortunately they're both automatic but still a lot of fun to drive and I have to agree for a 15 year old body style probably the best looking wagon out there. Nice to know there is big following and maybe one day I'll have the time go to some meets or even join you guys in a convoy to the IPD garage sale or something like that. Keep up the great content, stay safe and healthy. Cheers from Toronto Canada.

Still regret selling my 05 volvo s60R. Grey with light tan interior, had since new.. was still like new when I sold it.. now its in a volvo museum. I have faster cars, I have cars with more options, but I LOVED that car.

[@26Vincent26]

I have got a Saab 9-3 cabriolet with the B204 turbo engine stage 1 (220 hp). It is my first car and I absolutely love it. Spend kinda much money into it (for me) to restore things like rust, etc. I do not know why, but I kinda fell in love with Swedish cars. Great car!

[@TheRealTJDoyle]

Found an S60R that's been sitting in someone's yard today. Left a note saying I'm interested. Hopefully they'll sell.

I'll never sell mines either no matter how much I put in mines...and I love how ur car look

Love your Volvo. We have a S60 AWD T5 2002 model. This is our fourth Volvo. Carol and Neville from Australia.

[@markkibbe1802]

I will never sell my V50 (or my Amazon for that matter). These cars are so unique, and there really is nothing else like them. That five cylinder sound, paired with a manual transmission in the most unassuming body style there is just makes me smile. I love mine, despite the flaws, and will keep it forever, continually improving it as the years go by.

[@markkibbe1802]

@TwinTurbo Ray Yeah Europe gets all the fun stuff. I had a hell of a time finding a manual V50 in the states.

[@markkibbe1802]

@TwinTurbo Ray Yeah we don't have those. We only got the 2.4 and T5 gas 5 cylinders here, and almost all of them were autos. My best estimate places my manual V50 T5 at one of under 1,000 manuals currently here.

[@markkibbe1802]

@TwinTurbo Ray Holy crap that's amazing. Something I can only dream of. There's only one other somewhat cool Volvo in my town. Silver V50 T5 R-Design driven by an old lady. Probably an auto, but I haven't gotten close enough to check. And one black over Atacama S60R manual a few towns over. That's about it in the 30 mile radius around my house

[@brandonbrown5952]

I hope my dad gives me his passion red 2005 manual Volvo V70R. Rare and fast!

[@miguelsanjurjo3270]

I understand you perfectly! I was already playing with the idea of a V70 P2 here in Germany when you started your V70R-series. Those episodes convinced me that these are the cars for me! A few weeks later i found a pretty well preserved one in Holland and bought it immediately (2003/M66/Black/Nordkap/Sunroof). Reason number 6: you learn a lot about cars by owning and restorating one of these: They are complex machines having AWD, turbo, Four-C, angle gear, etc... etc... but from a generation where you can still do a lot of repairs by yourself. My luckily-probably-never-going-to-happen-price: 35k€ (used to be 30k€, but now I added the third row seat in the back :^D). Keep posting

[@shaunmiller3342]

I was never a big fan of Volvo’s, always thought they were nice but not for me, but now after seeing your videos and the recent designs and how they drive I can’t wait to put an XC90 in my driveway...thanks for the videos

[@jamiesmith6838]

Thank you Gregson for this and countless other Volvo, in particular videos! I'm also glad to hear you will keep her!! I have the same blue in the sedan with the Nortica blue leather. (I've always loved & wanted that "Orange" leather) No doubt, I have to restore mine! Stage 1 & exhaust like yours! It sounds amazing. Maybe some rims? I looked into the Audi RS3 with their glorious 5 cylinder engine. But, money is always a factor for most of us here on your channel. I'm keeping my S60R too!👍🌷👋

[@grahamforbes3243]

Seriously considering buying a V70R to replace my 20 year old Jaguar XJR after 7 years as I need more space but I am put off by all the horror stories I have read about failures in the auto transmission, angle gear, Haldex system, 4C suspension and thin cylinder walls leading to cracks in the engine block. How prevalent are these issues and can anything be done to avoid them ?

My favourite angle is the rear/rear 3/4 view I love that squat, wide stance.

Happy father's day Greg! Also, I'd like to hear the story of the old gray one. The original video with that car is what brought me to the channel.

Thanks Mark! I'll definitely make that video then. It's pretty interesting.

Anyway, I just lowered her and put on coil-overs. Nice!!!! Now she sticks! Got her for a song but lots to do.. I plan on some tuning to get the HP up a bit more! 😎. Any idea how many of these Gen 1 V70R s were produced? Anyway... NOT for sale😉!

Happy Father's Day to ya!!!

[@cyclesingsleep]

I have an 'idea'... There are train video that are unedited, rolling video of trains traveling from one point to another. Perhaps you could do a long format video from a drone behind your car or a camera mounted up over the back or up and over the side of your car (so we can see the car and the environment) as you cruise the Blue Ridge Parkway or Broadway in Manhattan from Ft. Clinton to the Bronx or through Coney Island...or...or... some interesting sound track but also with the natural sounds of the car and environment... : ) ...could be a super interesting travel and car combination : )

[@morgan5324]

The reason I LOVE Volvos and the V70R is because my dad used to have a 2002 volvo v70 2.3T5 and it was amazing I absolutely loved it so I've looked into Volvos and found out about a V70R and I love it, some point in the future i would LOVE one !!

[@davidkelley751]

So my dad has a 2004 V70r GT 200k miles. These are some reasons why he would sell or part ways with it. My dad has always wanted a mustang, so he might sell to get the money for a mustang. He would part ways if my sister or I get into an accident and it’s considered totaled. Other than that he loves the car and I don’t see him replacing it any time soon.

[@richardherman650]

I have an 05 v70r as well with the m66 and really enjoy it overall. I would say that there are definitely better cars out there, but where else are you going to get a quick 6 speed manual station that is capable of hauling all sorts of stuff? The 6 speed cars are incredibly rare and to me the 6 speed makes the difference whether to deal with the little issues or not. Great seats, great looks, sounds great, and decently quick.

[@legambaz]

These are one of the all-time best car. Don't sell. The joy of driving and owning these can't be put in words. Volvo ownership put us out of the rat race. You simply will forget about wanting to be king of handling, king of performance, king of this, king of that. The car simply let you enjoy being inside of it, using it daily, driving it around Occasionally you'll embarrass some sports car driver when you floor it cause this soccer Mom grocery grabber is capable of leaving behind many sport cars if they're tuned right. Plus, comfort of these seats are hard to beat. You'll never find so many great traits all bundle up in one car like the V70 of an XC70.

[@Zec3]

As a Swede i find it really cool that americans enjoy Volvo's as much as we do here in Sweden. I grew up and still lives right outside Gothenburg were Volvo was founded and still manufacture and develope many of their cars. Volvo's has always been there anaywhere you went you saw one, especially the V70 and XC70. The Police and Fire Department use them, my friends familys growing up had them, my neigbours had several and eventually even my own family got one in 2016. It really makes me as a Swede happy seeing Volvo's beeing loved and taken care of overseas.

Although now it is in the hands of an awesome Volvo horder in Denmark.

recently found your channel after purchasing my own 04 S60R. did a little research on your point about rarity, and I found that there were only about 3400 V70Rs sold in the US between 04 and 07. only about 40% of those were manual transmissions. couple that with your blue paint and atacama interior, and I suspect you have quite the rare car on your hands. no doubt less than 100 units; probably fewer than 50.

[@timbarry1351]

I purchased my 05 V70R off of BAT (Sort of).... Instant money pit, yet I kept telling myself that this will be the last expensive repair that I will have to do. I think we’ve turned a corner, and I finally got to adding some “fun” parts to make it my own. Like you, I love the lines of the car, only wish Volvo had offered more interior color choices. Tan with a silver exterior is just too bland for me. IMHO. Next up, interior color change. I think that I may shake up the P2 community by dying the interior red. I’ll wait for the fallout...

where are you finding v70 R's for that cheap!? The only one for sale in my in Oregon is going for $12,000

[@JMacGyver1]

Once your angle gear goes, or maybe the wiring harness / plug wires start failing, you’ll likely change your mind about selling the V70R. The negatives, that I’ve experienced with my 07 V70R auto, are all the Ford parts bin crap that went into making the car. Then again, I did get 235k miles out of it. It’s sitting in my garage gathering dust now, given I’m not willing to put the money into fixing the angle gear, getting the turbo re-built, replacing the rear struts (the fronts were done a year ago), and, and, and....

[@ShiftingLanes]

I've had flooder cylinders due to bad injectors, bad wheel hubs, a tire disintegrate on me, bad spark, bad coils, bad lights, blown lights, leaky roof, no fog lights for almost 2 years, bad brakes, bad SUM cal, bad PEM. Yea man it's not going anywhere.

[@JMacGyver1]

ShiftingLanes The angle gear issue, is challenging, as you’re either going to have to spring for a new one through a Volvo dealer or hope you can find a wrecked car that you can pull it off of. I wasn’t willing to pay the $2500 for a new one. Yes, I’ve had to get my SUM reprogrammed twice, fog lights were deleted years ago, and the turbo has been leaking for the past 3 years. And unfortunately, the interior of our VR is trashed having carried 4 kids and two labs for 10 years of their lives. It also didn’t help that it was both rear ended by an F150 and t-boned by an old pickup. The rear ended wasn’t terrible as it was a slow spread hit, requiring a new hatch and bumper plus some minor body repair. The t-boning was bad, requiring replacement of front and rear quarters and both doors on the driver side, air bags, glass, etc. Plus re-building the side frame. The police and fireman who responded figured there would have been fatalities had it not been a Volvo. I was mostly fine (driving), and my wife only had minor cuts from my driver’s door window breaking and glass flying faster than the airbag curtain could deploy. It was a great car, but I will put the ~$10k worth of repairs into getting what I really want for a tinkerer car - a 911. Far greater chance of not losing value over time. If you’re interested, I’d be happy to give you the roof track covers, so you could remove the rails that were not stock on the wagon. I’ve also got the Volvo stock roof rack carrier bars that fit on the car (without the roof rails). I think your wagon would look even better without the rails.

The only thing it makes it look a bit better is get rid of the roof Reling.. Than the car design comes to life!
