Used Car of the Day: 2006 Volvo V70R

by Tim Healey

Published: April 24th, 2024

Today we bring you a manual-transmission wagon. Got the vapors yet? It's also Swedish. It's a 2006 Volvo V70R.

It's all-wheel drive with a six-speed manual transmission. It's had the same owner since 2012, and the owner/seller has complete service records and two sets of rims.

Although this car is based in Ontario, the seller has listed the price in USD -- and that price is $10,000. The mileage is 302,764 kms or 188,012 miles.

Tim Healey

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

I'd take one of these with fewer miles, or the last-gen V90 (NO Cross Country frippery, thanks), which was a lovely car.

Is the idle high? How many codes are behind the check engine light? How many millions to address the traction issue? What's the little triangular warning lamp about?

  The triangle is just an indicator that there's messages to display in the message center. Could be as simple as a bulb failure warning or as major as... well major.

Mike Beranek In the sedan game, it's now either Camry or Accord. The rest are just background noise.
Theflyersfan I know their quality score hovers in the Tata range, but of all of the Land Rovers out there, this is the one I'd buy in a nanosecond, if I was in the market for an $80,000 SUV. The looks grew on me when I saw them in person, and maybe it's like the Bronco where the image it presents is of the "you're on safari banging around the bush" look. Granted, 99% of these will never go on anything tougher than a gravel parking lot, but if you wanted to beat one up, it'll take it. Until the first warning light.
Theflyersfan $125,000 for a special M4. Convinced this car exists solely for press fleets. Bound to be one of those cars that gets every YouTube reviewer, remaining car magazine writer, and car site frothing about it for 2-3 weeks, and then it fades into nothingness. But hopefully they make that color widespread, except on the 7-series. The 7-series doesn't deserve nice things until it looks better.
Master Baiter I thought we wanted high oil prices to reduce consumption, to save the planet from climate change. Make up your minds, Democrats.
Teddyc73 Oh look dull grey with black wheels. How original.
