Buying a Volvo as a taxi
I am looking at buying a Volvo V70 2.0d for taxi use. This comes under 160g for emmissions. What do you think of this in terms of economy and maintainance costs?

Why not a Mondeo estate? It's actually bigger inside and under 150g/km. Cheaper to maintain because it's a Ford.
