I drove a 2007 xc70 today...liked it much better than my 2009. Handled quicker, better fitting seats (for me). Smaller engine, but more p/u. When did Volvo change it's models? Is the 2008 the same as 2007, or 2009? Any feedback on the 2007 model year? I know it's a 'trade down' from my 2009 to a 2007, but the 2007 just 'feels better'.

    I think the 2007 was the last year for the 5 cyl engine. It is a light pressure turbo delivering just over 200bhp.

    Have you tried driving the 2014 XC70? The tranny has been re-geared (?) for better mileage, or re-programmed.
