 mavericks's recommendation | |
Top design, good looks, lots of comfort and power, safe.
Poor build quality, drivers seat base changed twice. Air con/climate is a wast of space.
Turning circle is terrible.
This is my third Volvo, 850 estate and the last one was a Volvo S60 2.0t.
This car is not up to standard, the diesel is noisey, and the fuel economy on motorway journeys, does not come up to expectations at 36/37 per gal.
Climate control, cannot make its mind up what temp to supply.
Have had to have a new rear screen because the heater interfeard with the radio.
Drivers seat base has been replaced twice in 35000 miles as it dropped 2 inches.
In short, what have volvo done? Give me back my 187000 mile 850, and take this thing away.
