Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Non Porsche related.. I have a deposit on a '07 Volvo V70 wagon and would like to ask if by any chance someone on the forum is near Columbia SC to do a generic inspection and most important, a test drive to check for rattling. This V70 is a low mileage, one owner wagon and would like to check it out before I buy it and ship it to SoCal. Will happily pay for gas and lunch for two PLMK, thank you! PS: the wagon is at a used car dealer

However in 1999 I bought my first Volvo V70 (new) as a daily driver, then a 2002, a 2006, 2007 and now looking to buy another 2006 with 52k miles, these are great sport wagons that have space and convenience, also extremely comfortable for long drives but also have good handling (specially when you install yellow Bilsteins, thicker sway bars, etc., ..
