Volvo XC70 Problems
No car is perfect, but we've gathered everything relating to the Volvo XC70 reliability here to help you decide if it's a smart buy.
What is the best tow vehicle to buy?
The GQ Patrol was a tough old bird, but it’s old and buying one now is a gamble. You could consider a Toyota Landcruiser, but again your budget will limit you to an older vehicle and that is always a risk. You could perhaps consider fitting power steering to the XF ute.
Massive electrical fault on 2014 Volvo XC70
We haven't heard of any other reports of this, but it sounds serious. I would ask Volvo for an explanation of what happened and why. Seems an investigation is warranted.

Premium vs regular unleaded on Volvo XC70
The recommended fuel for the XC70 is 95-octane, which is Premium unleaded. You could use regular unleaded, but you won't get the same economy or performance from it. You could improve your economy by stepping up to 98-octane, but you have to weigh up the benefits against the extra cost of the fuel to determine if the higher quality fuel is worth it.
