D5 how reliable???
Discussion
I work in a garage & have taken a shine to a v70 D5 that came in the other day, but to be honest i havent done a great deal of work on them so are they super reliable or have i just not seen a bad one??????
I would like a big estate car for the dog & other stuff & they drive great, what things in particular shoud i be looking at???

Age dictates engine to a degree. Go for a EuIII if you pay for the fuel. Auto or manual are irrelevant.
Somebody has already flagged the injector issue - this is really it! Most other things are jusr cars and parts as normal. Ensure everything works when purchasing. Dealers are not plentiful i.e limited in number. Excellent pre-owned purchases as most are well maintained.
Best of luck.
DO NOT buy the V70 GIII (>2008) without spending some time in one.
