Proscomfy, quiet, good mpg, not a huge estate/wagon Consindicators work intermittantly ;-).

A Proper Workhorse — 50 mpg, heated seats, mp3, sits on the motorway at 90 all day long,, done 25,000 so far this year, thus a vulva. Not the biggest boot in the work but more than enough room for all my work gear and my dog! Dual zone a/c is a nice touch as is the auto dim mirror. Could do with bigger door pockets. Awesome sound system although mine is a factory upgrade. | ||

ProsBig space ConsRim

V50 — Good fuel economy, brilliant transmission and good power. 200+ torque, 180bhp, with 6 air-bags. Volvo made, unbelievably tough car. That was a wagon, with big space to carry boxes, etc. Transmission is good, which is an auto-manual thing. Generally speaking, brilliant car for winter here. Primary Use: Commuting to work | ||

Volvo V50 — It's a sporty little wagon that has some get up and go. The turbo makes this car fly. I'm bummed that the shocks are almost shot and the rear driver's side door window and lock don't work and need to be repaired. It's a blast though. The tech cloth interior is prone to stains. the brakes are cool and I dno't really want to write anymore! | ||

Volvo V50 2.4 — It was very, very slow. The 2.4 felt like a 1.4. But the T-4 version is a lot better apparently. I did like the stylish interior. It looks reasonable too, less Volvoid than before. Space wise, well it isn't that capacious inside, but it handles fairly well and can be punted along with reasonable confidence, more so than the V70. Build is solid- it just needs a bigger engine to shine. Nice warble to the engine tho. | ||
