Hey there! That is some really entertaining stuff you making mate! I was wasted after long working day,but couldn't resist to watch your video till the very end! Respect! Now,as for that Volvo. I live in Finland and always had that weak spot on these XC's. They look solid,very well put together and practical at the same time. Add that power,and the package becomes very tempting. About 6 years ago I had the chance to test drive one of these T6s for a weekend. I am a spirited driver and although on my 49s I prefer relaxing driving most of the time,I do like to play with the steering sometimes too. That car does not inspire drivers like me. Although on a moderately twisty roads it feels alright,sharp maneuvers are something the car hates to do. Any time I sharply move the steering,I could feel the heavy 6 cylinder sitting above the front axle. Massive torque steer on wet,numb steering, unbalanced suspension and gearbox. My previous car was E39 528 and I wanted to go for something different and better,but even the E39 was about 6 years older,it felt universe ahead of that Volvo in terms of handling,road feel and overall put together. Sadly. Good,bit just not good enough.

[@AWMJoeyjoejoe]

​@@volvo09Thanks! He's here now. Broken parking brake motor. Apparently it's quite a common fault.

[@JuicingDailyTV]

What went wrong????

[@Spenny909]

​@AWMJoeyjoejoe did the AA guy diagnose the issue straight away using the onboard computer but still insisted on looking in the engine bay, losing a few screws around the engine, then taking a wheel off to put it back on again, before saying it needs to go to a garage to be fixed?

[@AWMJoeyjoejoe]

​@@Spenny909I was actually very impressed. He arrived within half an hour, knew immediately what had happened, removed the dodgy parking brake actuator, wound back the caliper and sent me on my way. It's going for its MOT and service on Monday so I'll just get them to stick a new actuator on it then. First time I've ever used the AA but like I said, I was impressed.

[@Yorkshiremadmick]

I having watched your video of your Accountants XC70. I bought a XC70 D5 SE Sport, auto with AWD 2008 with 18,000 miles on the clock, in Oct 2023. I’ve subsequently had her tinted and Polestar installed. Love it.

[@albertperks3476]

I've had two XC70s it's such a great car very practical - huge boot (bigger than Audi A6 Merc E-Class and even the new V90 XC). I'm loathed to part with it. Sure it 'leans' a bit but you can hustle it a bit over lumpy ground due to that long suspension travel. Good breaks and those seats are really comfortable on long journey's.

[@tk380514]

The seats man, just wonderful

[@isaiahanderson7237]

[@TheSteinbitt]

[@lvpvsmalvm522]

I have a Volvo S80 3.2. Brilliant car.

[@davids1816]

It is a twin-scroll turbo as well :-). The car is very nose heavy and understeers relentlessly, but it has fantastic power. The wheels look amazing on the car.

[@foxstrangler]

I have a P3 V70 D5. Hands down the best car I've ever owned. Had it for nearly 10 years now, and it was 2 when I bought it. 93K, overall average 46.8 mpg, with 73 on a run, 1000 miles on a full tank. 6 speed manual, 215 bhp and two stage turbo. I didn't consider the XC - more to go wrong. The T6 has a chain driven gearbox. I had a pet ex main dealer mechanic who looked after it until age and arthritis got the better of him. He didn't like the chain driven box. The service manager at one main dealer said leave the Tiptronic boxes alone, they can dump themselves at 100K and it was 4-5 grand for a rebuild. Looked at a V90. Again, different main dealer said no, stick with what you have - far less to go wrong. So I intend to drive it or myself into the ground. The V90 has 2/3 the cargo volume of the V70, and waaaay less than my old 740s, and the horrid touch screen for everything. Volvo owner for over 40 years, and a nice T5 ragtop for the sunshine.

[@polap7az]

Hi James, thank you so much for this review, this really hit very close to the heart! We had a black XC70 T6 Polestar with my parents, bought new in 2013, very shortly before I left home. This was the last car that me and my dad specced together and a very special spec it was! Every time I visited, I wanted to drive to places, just to enjoy it. Totally agree with all your points. To this day it's probably still my favourite car. I was very sad when my dad got wowed by a V90 of the next generation and sold the 70, the new one being a major letdown. I still have a lot of pictures of the XC70 and they bring up a lot of memories! Last real Volvo. Thanks again.

[@g0fvt]

A few people have used the S80/XC90 V8 in these, a Yamaha design apparently. If I was younger I might be tempted to do a similar conversion. A factor to consider with these cars of course is ULEZ compliance, many of the T6 imports are fine. My D5 is registered for the ULEZ zone "just in case" but I have not been billed for it. (Though I have driven around the perimeter). Certainly not a traditional driver's car, the feedback is not on the same level as a light car with stiff suspension. I have had mine a while now, just a D5 automatic , parked amongst later SUVs it is positively elegant looking. They are a complex car, and getting old, I try to stay ahead of maintenance, IE to make the car better this year than it was last year. Passengers always praise the car for comfort. To put the performance into perspective, an old school 3 litre Capri (manual) could not beat this lazy arse diesel automatic to 60mph and would be spanked for top speed too.

[@davids1816]

I had an S50, V60, and XC60 Redesign. The motor is fantastic.

[@ΑΠΟΣΤΟΛΟΣΧΑΤΖΗΣΤΑΥΡΟΥ]

After more than 10 years since it's introduction a well speced bitdi a6 allroad c6 is still for me the best all round car. The amount of bases these off road estates have covered is astonishing. Also, according to audi, the a6 allroad had more affluent drivers than the a8 and even the r8, something to be said about the allroad 's inconspicuous nature

[@ivarmarkusson382]

i bought one of these out of the blue when i needed a family hauler years ago. a 08 d5, this thing has turned out to be the best family hauler we have ever had.. i am a merc/bmw dude, so the comparison is fun for a nerd like me. the volvo is not a bmw, its not a drivers car.. its a users car, when you start shoveling kids, dogs, luggage and what not, you constantly realise how well they thought of something that makes the car more usable, i have never had a car, that filters out what ever its driving on, on 18" tires it barely feels the difference when you drive from tarmac on to a gravel road. where i live everything is covered with ice at least half the year, with chainmarks in it. while other cars feel like they are being shaken apart, the old tank does not care its REALLY capable in snow.. surprisingly so, mine sees alot of it, and the cladded lowerpart ables you to drag the sills and lower part of the doors through it w/o having to think about paint. its is based on a for platform, that is true, all car nerds have heard the stories of how both saab and volvo tended to modifie everything ford and gm forced them to use so much that they ended up saving no money.. that you can see on those p3's, just look at the weight difference between a xc70 and a mondeo wagon. mine weights 1940kg with less than 1/4 tank. i did not plan to own this car for long, i just needed it to fill in between cars, i want to have new ish cars for this job, but i still have the old tank, and will probably do so for at least 1-2 years

[@lirmeaney6255]

I remember reading Volvo Xc60s haven’t got a fatal accident to their drivers yet . When I think of a proper Volvo I think pre-China owned and even pre-Ford Volvo cars ie a Volvo XC70 early 2000s proper tank of a car

[@summerjunk929]

Love my V70 D5, even more so because its a manual with polestar tune, 230bhp and 50mpg, kids love the integrated dvd screens and the car also has integrated booster seats, Volvo knew what they were doing with family cars!

[@jayjuggrnaut]

Back in 2019, I picked up a 2018 Volvo V60 Cross Country. I got it because I couldn't find a good example of an XC70 within my price range. The V60 is a very good car, but it is still a poor substitute for the XC70, mainly due to the size. I really regret not paying the premium and getting the bigger car.

[@markherd3116]

I was unaware of the T6, the T5 yeah! Definitely. But also that number plate. Very cool.

[@06dpa]

One of these would be my dad's dream car if they were still made. He always wanted one, but most of them being over 10 years old has put him off. I liked these too.

[@tk380514]

I've had a XC70 2006 D5, XC70 2009 3.2 and a 2016 D5 which was remapped, sadly a deer met its forever home on the bumper and wrote it off. Now I have a V90 cc D5

[@chrisbolton5461]

Great video. Good car. My V50 T5 AWD Man is great and if looked after, reliable, with a hint of mischief thrown in.

[@aquinamedia4508]

What's the milage on yours? I find my FWD 2005 quite garbage tbh, 22000 Swedish miles (137000 Queens miles) on mine. Driveshafts to name one (sorted 2007 and on), ALL chassis bushes perish around the milage (275 HP 450Nm upgrade of course helps killing the engine/gearbox bushes) . CEM-box is genuinly positioned by a pre-schooler. Drivetrain is nice though.

[@grahamcutress47]

I was lucky 18 months ago to stumble across a 2016 model with a D5 in black 6 miles away from my house with 56K on the clock, at the time I was searching around and looking for XC 60s And felt deflated about the condition and space when looking at the hundred on the used market because they were primarily family wagons and ex-motorbility vehicles with it being the latest one made the LCD display and satnav is usable. The 220 hp is amazing for towing a caravan and if I play nice it will do 40 - 45 MPG on longer runs? It’s almost a unicorn, my love for it comes from seeing them as roads policing cars and paramedics vehicles and realising how capable and durable they were during their time in service, luckily mine was privately owned and hadn’t had a particularly hard life Well done, James for featuring a great car , possibly upping the values on the used market as they become scarce 😂😂

[@muskett4108]

Only reason I parted with mine was the gearbox went at 158 miles. To sort the gearbox out was more than its value, not that the value was very high. Nothing quite like them, wish something as similar was still made.

[@Bmovie5000]

Lovely car and so comfortable to drive. I borrowed a friends one for two weeks years ago. The T6 is a silky smooth motor and gives mote than enough power. Fuel economy was terrible however, getting me at best 14-16 L/100 in light short trip driving around town! And it only drank premium fuel. That said, I would seriously consider buying one today. Unlike modern cars, The T6 is NOT a direct injection design, meaning carbon buildup is a non issue and long term lifespan is much more assured. And Volvos from this era were still well built, using good materials and outstanding rust protection. With and average amount of care one of these should last for 100’s of thousands of KM.

[@jovialgent9963]

Reminds me of the Allroad Audi A6 (as you mentioned ) only the Volvo isn't an absolute dog!

[@kolejnipolscykrakersi]

Except Volvos are relaiable. Check average milage for example

[@Kacpa2]

And more importantly Subaru Outback.

[@ΑΠΟΣΤΟΛΟΣΧΑΤΖΗΣΤΑΥΡΟΥ]

The og allroad was a car ahead of it's time, now we wish we could get a car that only has 3 major issues (two of which can be avoided can be avoided if you go for the right version). Also as much as I like the xc70 the capabilities and hardware of the original allroad (including low range on the manuals) are rather impressive, supposedly it's the only non suv that has completed a land rover off road course.

[@stco2426]

Looks amazing (and well edited btw).

[@MarkVinewood]

Given that V/XC70 is basically a S80 with a wagon body, I'm really wondering would that 4.4 v8 fit in there... Would be really cool in a XC70

[@owerty100]

It fits, there's actually a video on youtube, where somebody has done it. If I remember correctly it was in Czechia and in collaboration with Vdash (unofficial volvo programming software suite).

[@jamesengland7461]

That wood trim does look nice

[@glennsheppard3320]

I have had quite a few volvos, including the facelifted xc70 d5. I miss that car, towing, getting across a field when needed, and demolishing motorway miles. But it alway felt a bit vague and never ever returned more than 37 mpg, and I only got that once. One thing I noted across the various models, the P3 platform was more modern, and there are more features, but the P2 just seemed more solid. And I'm sure someone will be along to correct me and state that the 240s and 850s were better than any if those!

[@musiclights3897]

XC70, the only car you'll ever need. I have a Japanese import T6 too - a 2011 one, a superb car, currently just over 60k miles, everything standard so far. The Japanese look after their vehicles, like new underneath. Just applied Lanoguard last weekend to protect the car from our salt. If you are ever in the Dundee area again, give me a wave... I drove an Audi A4 quattro for 12+ years before buying the Volvo - no plans to go back to Audi, the Volvo is better in every way with the exception of fuel economy (around 30 mpg taking it easy, the Audi diesel could return 40+mpg).

[@flavioc5389]

A much better proposition is a late V70 D5 AWD. With bigger intercooler, intake, remap, will do 330hp and tons of torque.

[@badrolkane]

I love wood in cars. I viewed a 996 C4s that was a Porsche dealer owners personal car and it had so much wood inside it. I had never seen a 996 with wood trim. I was seriously jealous of it. It would of looked amazing in my 996 turbo cab

[@electricalinput5999]

Wood trim in sports cars needs to be more of a thing

[@AntoniusTyas]

12:45 dangit I can relate with that James. I used to love carbon and metal trim on cars. But I don't know when it started (I think I have one of your video review to blame for that, probably either the Brooklands or the Vantage V550) I thought 'Eh, wood and leather interior is a better combo anyway than carbon and alcantara'. I was disappointed when Aston no longer offered ash trim for DB12. But at least they do in new Vanquish and oh it's just so good-looking. I'm 31 going on 32 btw so maybe I'm old now.

[@duncanhamilton5841]

The real bugbear of the Ford era P3 cars is the dismal Group parts bin electronics hidden about the body - just done the NSR door lock on my 2014 V60, and the OSF front is logging faults so that'll need doing. Ref the P2 V70R AWD - I had one for 8 years, and it was utterly bombproof. The steering was actually pretty good but you had to be driving the door handles off it to get any real feedback. 4C suspension I found mostly pointless - comfort was fine 99% of the time, sport was too crashy, advanced was just 'suspension off' mode. Rarely touched it, and then a shock went and I was presented with a gigantic bill.

Very reliable cars the P3s. Coming from the volvo community here in russia, i don't know of anyone who's dissatisfied with them. The only thing is that if, say, you have to take the engine apart, it's properly expensive, but happens rarely. Gotta go for the best one you can afford, like with most things. Bear in mind, volvo interiors are not the best in terms of quality, with age everything starts making noises, and these cars are getting on a bit now.

[@maartenb100]

@ Yes, it’s annoying.🤣. The nylon gears are worn out so it doesn’t open and close properly. It’s useless because the maps are very outdated. It takes up room in the glovebox, ald lastly, I wnat to replace it with a nice polished wooden plate onto which I can mount my CarPlay unit and route the wires through. It’s quite a big job removing it so I’d like to know if I can do it safely.🤷‍♂️

Still great Volvo. But already messed up. Mine is from simillar era, T5. Stuff that breaks? Stupid Sirius xm module locks up the radio for example. So crap you never needed, bricks your car.. Avoid cars with too many sensors. And service Aisin gearboxes. Toyota gearbox is the wickest element in Volvo.. By the way: wood is wood. Germans never got that concept..
