Early v70 d5 Wanted
As per title, I'm potentially in the market for a D5 V70 due to a change in commute. From what I've read the 163bhp engine would be the best for me due to a lack of DPF.
I'd be open to swaps on my V70 T5 if anyone is interested in that - 130k miles, runs great. |

Bump - definitely in need of a d5 now, t5 won't cut it doing 100+ miles a day! Open to swaps or straight purchases.

Don't let the 185 version with a DPF put you off. It's really not that difficult to remove the DPF, clean it and replace it if it's a bit full when you buy the car, doing 100 miles a day is more than enough to keep it healthy and clear moving forward.

This, plus a soot filter full warning could make for a bargain purchase...

That said, I bought my current S60 knowing it wasn't happy, with a bit of methodical progress it's now absolutely tip top! |

My only issue with the dpf is that I have a commute of 20 miles each way but throughout the day I'd be doing short journeys from job to job. Reckon the dpf would still be ok?
