We now run a V70 (2.4 petrol) after many years of 745 ownership. While we prefer RWD, the V70 is slowly growing on us and is certainly a very comfortable car for both passengers and driver.
I'm afraid that I have no experience of V50s, so cannot comment on them, but I wish you luck in your search for a replacement for your 960. We looked in vain for a nice 965 / V90 before settling for the V70 - maybe things are different in NZ?

No, you can get them here too, sat between the 2.5T and the T6 but they are rare.
I loved my XC70 for long drives but my V50 is just as good, just as comfy and slightly more fun to drive to boot. With 16 inch alloys the ride is great, not V70 plush, but better than likes of an Octavia/Astra which is what it competes with.
