The turning circle in a V70 is vast, as is the leg room and load space! our V40 seats are firm and sporty, but the V70 seats are comfy armchairs!! I really enjoy driving both, However being 6'5" If it's distance it's the V70 for me! cars at the moment 04 V70, 53 V70, 52 V40 before these 99 V70 & 96 855 Jay

To me the two models are as different as being on a seperate planet!

As for turning circle the distance is exactly the same 10.6 metres.

The later 2000- depending what model has a larger turning circle but only put down to the fact they have the wider 225mm tyres fitted and have steering stops to prevent arch rubbing.

There is a road where i live and i can turn within the width of the road with both of my cars on full lock and just touch kerbs both sides.
