Today we're going wagon style as we bring you a 2007 Volvo V70R Ti.
Apparently it has been well-maintained. It has the Getrag six-speed automatic transmission and 143,000 miles on the clock.
Mods include BBS 19-inch wheels, fully adjustable coilovers, upgraded sway bars and lower control arms, LED lighting, and more.
Cosmetically, the car appears to have some minor flaws but nothing major.

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.

- 28-Cars-Later Suggestion for future QOTD: Given the fact US road infrastructure is crumbling around us why must all new cars have 20+ inch wheels with tires an inch or two thick in sidewall which literally become bent over time bc of potholes? I know initially in the 90s wheels got bigger to accommodate larger disc brakes but its gone a little too far given the road infrastructure don't ya think?

- SCE to AUX I can't warm up to the new look. Still prefer my 22 SF.
- SCE to AUX I guess the direct sales stores weren't polled. Unless dealers are going out of business, I don't feel one bit sorry for them. They should most fear the mfrs who are eager to get rid of them, reducing costs and increasing customer satisfaction.

". . .the wife has insisted on an suv for the kids."
There's one reason I've been passing on kids. . .
I don't see any mods that would drastically alter or compromise the car apart from the KW coilovers, and I'd argue they're a net win for the next owner. IPD is practically a surrogate OEM for succeeded generations of Volvo, so I wouldn't worry about parts from them, either.
Honestly, I think if he puts his stock wheels back on, finished the 4C removal, and dropped the price closer to market value, he could have it sold in short order.
I want one of these so bad, in this color, and I'd even settle for an auto. Not *this* one, mind you, but a good condition carbon copy.
