Q
3rd row seat available for 2008-9 Volvo V70 wagons?
I believe small 3rd-row seats were available (either from dealers or in the after market) for previous versions of the Volvo V70 and XC70 wagons; does anyone know if these seats are available for the newest versions of these wagons?

Volvo has ruled them to be unsafe for today's driving conditions so they are no longer offering them on the newer models. If you are going new, you should opt for a XC90 with a third row. With the incentives they have going on them right now, you can get them for about the same price and their gas...

Volvo brake pads are typically very soft, so about 30,000 miles would be normal. Depending upon how much they are used, it could be sooner.

Nearly all of the V70’s wagon rivals come from other European automakers, and nearly all offer performance that’s livelier than that of the 2008 Volvo V70.
The Passat is considerably more affordable than the V70, and very fuel efficient when equipped with the standard 2.0T engine, while the A6 Avant and 9-5 SportCombi both have a sportier feel behind the wheel than the V70 without being much worse in ride comfort.
At the far end of the comparison is the larger Mercedes E-Class, which as a wagon only comes in all-wheel-drive E350 4Matic form or as the high-performance E63 AMG.
Both models are considerably more expensive than the V70 without being much roomier inside.
The V70’s interior is the real differentiator versus its rivals; its look and feel is refreshingly different, and the backseat design is easier to fold down than in most other wagons.
