Hmmm. According to Craigslist, you should keep looking. I found a 2005 black with no SR, cloth, and 105K miles; and a silver 2004 with leather, no power seat, and no climate control, 92K miles in San Antonio. Both are 'dealers'.

In Texas, you probably do not want a dark colored car. I have 3 drivers, so the power seat with memory is a requirement. The V70 with fwd is not in demand as much as an XC, but you dont need AWD and the extra cost.

The seats are not quite as comfortable as the 1994-2000 wagons, which fit like a glove. Still, they are better than the competition.

Try to get maintenance history! Or at least the local dealer where the car was serviced, they keep records. The Timing belt/tensioner for 2005 is 120K intervals.
