Seeking help near Columbia SC
 
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

In my perception, porsche drivers and volvo drivers are two diametrically different characters, interesting that i'm being taught better ;-)

Perhaps I am Bi-Polar.. :D

I love sport cars, I am into my second Cayman but my background comes from Renault 8S, Fiat X1/9's, Alfa Romeo's and obviously Porsches..

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., .. :rolleyes:
