Question I am thinking of buying a V70R, What is the best year(2006?), and what are the weaknesses of this model thru the years 04 to 06? I currently drive a 92 740Turbo wagon which I love.
Answer Willam, stay away from the AWD models. The best year was 1995 but as far as the new versions, I havent really heard or seen many problems with them. If you can get the 06 for a good price, then I would buy it. The weaknesses that I know of are the usual brake rotors and control arm bushings. Roger
