Buying used xc70 - 2012 V70-XC70 2012

Check on the warranty - my 2012 has a 5 year 50k wear and tear warranty - it covers everything except tires that have their own warranty.

All around we get 22 MPG with our loaded 2008 and 24 mpg with our plain Jane FWD 2012.

We just got 26.9 on a 3400 mile trip from Massachusetts to Minnesota and back about one third at 75 or more. BTW, the computer was within .2 MPG both times I checked the mileage on trips to MN.

What kind of $ are you talking?

Our 2012 has a real strong Blue Book value the 2008 not so much - we bought it last year with 77 k for $16,900.

That warranty is worth quite a bit and my dealer will extend a non- wear and tear warranty to 8 years, 100k for a sliding scale depending at what time, mileage you make the deal.

Both cars have provided excellent service.

I really like these tall 70s - but nothing can replace Isabel, my '96 855R that I drove for 13 years. (Whine, whine)

Anyone need some Volans?
