It's a 2004 with manual transmission. It's not very Saab-like, but a lot of fun. The turning radius and poor fuel economy are my 2 gripes with the volvo, both of which are great in our 9-5. Actually there's a 3rd gripe, it's not nearly as spacious in the back seat as our 9-5, much less legroom means the car seat that fits in the 9-5 sedan doesn't fit in the V70R.
Ideally our '01 would be an aero wagon, and our '04 would be some other AWD wagon. But we've got what we've got, I'm happy with the fleet overall.
