I've had a S60 d5 185 for a couple of years. Fuel economy is mid 40's, torque is superb, excellent for towing.

P3 V and XC70s are Mondeo with Volvo interiors and engines dependant on varient. Many jaguars were mondeo's in drag. As I explained to a friend whom had a jag, my Mondeo had a Volvo D5 engine, his had a ford. He was so hacked off with this he chopped it in for a BMW. As to the original question V70 D5 but get it polestared if towing, makes an excellent car superb. Paul. Last edited by green van man; Jan 21st, 2018 at 07:48. Reason: added info |

As others have said the V70 D5 is the 1 for towing . I have had 2 of these because I tow a caravan as well and the V70 is a very stable car.

I thought D5 engines were only fitted to Volvo's?
