I am curious how the Volvo compares to the Mercedes C-class?

I do use distilled water...straight from the supermarket!!!
The Volvo V70 is larger and has more carrying capacity. And the seats, specially the front seats are so comfortable. If I could have my desk chair at work made out of volvo seats I'd be a very happy camper.
The 2002 V70 is the fourth Volvo that we own...past one included a 740GLE sedan and a 740GLE wagon, plus a 940 Turbo. Volvos are nice, safe cars.
They are not, however, as tightly built as Benzes.
Even the 300TE with nearly 200K on the clock feels at least as tight as the Volvo.
The C320 wagon is a rocket. It seriously drives and handles like a sports car, a sports car with a huge trunk.
My former 940 turbo was not that fast at all...not even with the turbo fully engaged. Volvos are just not that fast, not compared to Benzes.
They are both very different wagons. It depends on what you are looking for in a wagon. I love wagons and have owned lots of them. I do like both the C320 Wagon and the Volvo V70...for what they each are.
whichever you chose, however, you will have a lot of fun. My youngest daughter has just taken up surfing and I bought a roof rack and load bars for her wagon. I must say it looks pretty cool with her board on top.
