estate that has all the important attrib utes of one of those clunky off-roaders without all the unnecessary weight. It is perfect if all you want to do is to get to an awkwardly positioned camp site or tow a heavy trailer. Okay, so it will not enable you to chase buffalos across the Serengeti. I can live without that.
The P ra c t ic a l it ie s Like the V70 estate it is, of course,
based on, the XC70 estate is nothing if not practical. Five passengers will travel in complete comfort and the boot space will swallow up a fair bit of kit, too. The driving position is well thought out, with all the buttons and switches close to hand and easy to identify. I had initially thought that this was
little more than a facelift of the old XC70 but no: this is a completely new car. The windscreen and tailgate are raked a little more than before, b ut the emphasis remains on serious carrying capacity. I t is still extremely space-efficient,
with a class-competitive 485 litres of fresh air back there and a massive 1,641- litres can be liberated if you fold the rear seats down and stack your cargo to the roofline. The 40-20-40 three-part split/fold rear

By JUNE NEARY
A sliding load floor is also offered as an option, as is a powered tailgate. You will also find luggage nets and hooks to help secure any items with wayward tenden cies. The car’s designers cleverly decreased
the amount the side glass curves from front to rear, for maximum style at the driving end and maximum carrying abil ity a t the business end. XC-embossed roof rails are a standard fit and the con trasting colour of the front foglight sur rounds give the XC70 a mean squint. Front and rear crash plates leave onlook ers in no doubt as to this car’s dual pur pose role. The interior has been given the once
over, too, with most of the clunkier design themes replaced by a slicker look and feel. Otherwise there are enduring Volvo qualities, such as supreme practi cality and a whole slew of safety features. On the subject of safety, from previous
models you get SIPS side impact protec tion, WHIPS whiplash protection, an inflatable curtain of head-level side airbags and the DSTC anti-skid system. There is also dual-stage airbag inflation (determined by impact severity) and Isofix mountings for the optional rear facing child seat to ensure correct fitting every time you install Junior. Then there is a passenger airbag cut
off switch and the Blind Spot Informa tion System (BLIS). This acts much like an extra set of eyes and utilizes digital

camera technology mounted in the door mirrors to monitor the areas 3m to each side and up to 9.5m behind the driver, producing a warning light if there’s any thing lurking there.
Behind the Wheel I was surprised by how composed the
XC70 was around the twisty roads where I live. There are two engines offered to UK customers. Petrol buyers get a Welsh-built 3.2-litre straight-six that punches a healthy 235 b.h.p. with a max imum torque of 320Nm. Diesel customers get the 183 b.h.p. 2.4-
Iitre D5 turbo-diesel that I tried with 400Nm of torque. The D5 drives through either a six-speed manual gearbox or a six-speed Geartronic auto with a sequen tial “manual” mode, while the 3.2-litre car is offered solely with Geartronic.
Both engines are strong power plants
that complement the driveline well with out overpowering it for the sake of head line stats. Of the two, the diesel will rack up bigger sales and is marginally the preferable unit. On the motorway, it eats up miles without draining the driver. If, like me, your longer journeys are few and far between, you will enjoy letting your hair down in this anything but sluggish estate.
Value for Money Prices for the XC70 estate models
start from £31,035. As usual with Volvo, you can order the car in any one of a variety of different trim packages. Indeed, Volvo offers a truly vast array of options and accessories on the XC70. I t would be all to easy to succumb to the temptations of the options .list and
end up paying far in excess of the list price for a fully-loaded model. There are also a number of handy packages of extra equipment that serve to simplify the selection process. This being Volvo, every V70 comes with a comprehensive array of safety equipment including the excellent WHIPS whiplash protection system and traction control. There is obviously ABS along with numerous airbags as well.
Could I Liv e with One Our Road Test Editor remarked after
driving the XC70 th at this was a car “whose time had come” and I concur. Why buy a large off-roader? I really can not see the point when you could have something like this. But then that is log ical and, as we all know, if all automotive buying decisions were based on logic....
