Didnt know that. But dont want a diesel and v70 t5 are a bit rare and command more for less performance and the same costs. So wrote them off. Sure 9-5 will be big enough, will check measurements.

We have 2 kids and it's plenty enough for us. The v70 boot is probably more square so easier to pack, but it's not like the 95 has a small boot.
I miss our w124 though...

Yeah it'll be plenty big for you, just that you were asking about boot space upthread so thought I'd mention it. As kboy says the rear bushings can be worn out or just creaky, our local independent garage lubed them with lithium grease and they went quiet until we sold the car two years later.

We spent ages hunting for a v70 t5, ended up with a 2011 Subaru Legacy diesel.
Similar money
Similar economy (few less MPG, but has 4wd)
Similar boot space
Worse seats (but still comfortable)
... but the deal breaker, a bonnet scoop - Mrs Hobs was sold!

They're nice to drive. Common issues are coil pack & turbo and that's exactly what broke on ours. Otherwise solid. Prone to rust at the front of the rear wheel arches. Seems like a good price.
Edit: boot is smaller than the v70 but I expect you know this
