After returning from Qatar, I got my XC70 back.... after driving a Pajero 3.8v6 for two years I'd forgotten how quick/beastly the D5 is. And at 175k miles, still feels taut

Front and rear drop links replaced with Lemforder parts. All the knocking and notch ride all gone and back to a nice taught ride. Two hours well spent.
