2021年6月15日 · This monstrous engine allowed the V70 R to scream its way from 0 – 100 km/h (62 mph) in around 6 seconds and go on to an electronically limited top speed of 250 km/h (155 mph). Volvo’s engineers mated the powerful engine to a Haldex based all-wheel drive system that gave supreme levels of traction.

2023年6月29日 · I'm assuming they're talking about the 2004-2007 P2 generation V70R. There's nothing wrong with these cars in particular, but they do have some common failure points which may make them less reliable than their standard V70 counterparts.

2020年9月15日 · P2 Manual Swap basics Since doing my XC70 manual swap, I've been getting a lot of questions on social media platforms as well as Swedespeed. I decided to prepare a document of sorts on the basics. This applies to S60 01-09, S60R 04-07, V70 01-07, V70R 04-07, and XC70 01-07. I will not be speaking about more oddball swaps like XC90s or S80s.

By definition (“P2”), this guide covers Volvo R cars from 2004-2007 model years. The other R cars are the earlier generation P80 platform.

2024年10月4日 · S60R & V70R models based on the P2 platform.

2020年11月7日 · Through this campaign, the community will learn everything I have (and will) learn about the transmission swap process on a P2 chassis. Most importantly, many will learn that it IS possible for a DIY mechanic to achieve!

2023年7月9日 · Volvo claimed a 5.9-sec 0-62mph time and an electronically limited 155mph top speed. Bringing us to this week’s Pill. With the pool of period-appropriate V70 Rs being limited in the classifieds,...

2024年4月1日 · I bought this high mileage example last week with the idea of refresh it, keep it and use it. It's done 383.000km (roughly 230.000mi) and has been maintained in the same Volvo service until 350.000km. I'm the third owner and bought it from a Volvo enthusiast who also owned a 240turbo, V70r, etc...
