Help--Need a Gen II v70 to fix my back V70-XC70

posted by  someone claiming to be Paul in Santa Cruz on  Fri Aug 27 06:22 CST 2010 [RELATED]

Thanks, guys, for the advice! Did they at least dispense with the flame trap in N/A V70s? In my recollection, buying a used 850 with a neglected flame trap was a main cause of RMS degradation--say, if you bought the car at 70K and it had never been changed.

Good point regarding getting one with 100K as opposed to 80K. Forgot about the big maintenance hump including suspension, etc. Wish I could install a Volvo seat in my 4Runner!

Thinking about bargaining for something like this (it's probably a couple $K overpriced)--it's a consignment car with new suspension w/ IPD upgrades:
