Buying the 2002 Volvo V70
CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2002 Volvo V70 for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. This page helps you judge the 2002 Volvo V70 before you buy one anywhere.
Recalls and complaints
Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. NHTSA lists 6 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car.
What the figures tell you
The 2.3L 5-cylinder turbo with front-wheel drive is the powertrain to look at. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
Rated at 11.2 L/100 km combined, it needs around 34 litres for a 300 km round trip. Every 100 km costs about $19.60 in fuel at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$3,900 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
Size and space
As a wagon, it has the length of a car with a bigger load space at the back. Its 1,019 litres of luggage space fit bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.
Who rents the V70
It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while. It uses more fuel than most, so it suits shorter trips or people who need its size.
Try before you buy
Drive the V70 on your commute before you commit to it. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. Rent the V70 for a week and see how it fits your life.
What it costs to run
Premium gas adds to the running cost compared with a car on regular. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $19.60 in fuel.
Which one to look for
Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices.
