| Re: [scans] AMS: BMW 520d vs. Volvo V70 D5 5er, no doubt. I agree with Andreas. After seeing it IRL I can safely say it's still in a slightly lower class than the Germans. It offers good value for money though.  |

| Re: [scans] AMS: BMW 520d vs. Volvo V70 D5 The Volvo is visually more attractive but I think the better car is the BMW by far. That's also the impression I got from reading the review. Actually you don't need to read the review to come up with that.

| Re: [scans] AMS: BMW 520d vs. Volvo V70 D5 Regarding the Volvo design, many at my work drive Volvo but they arent impressed by how the new V70 look like. I have to agree with them, particulary the rear isnt very attractive.
