So wonderful, I just bought my third !!!Source: MSN Autos...It starts like a champion, and even on super steep roads on 110 degree days it just keeps on going. The interior is very nice and comfortable. The audio system is sometimes a little fussy, but it is rare and not that big of a deal really. The back seats are a little small as with all our V50's but this one has the black meshy fabric, which is surprisingly great. It is cool and breathes well so your back doesn't get hot on long trips. And I quite appreciate the about 30 MPG i get on long trips. It only takes about 21 dollars to fill up and it gets me all the way to Chico, CA (a weekly commute)... |

Nice ride but expensive to maintain with reliability issuesSource: MSN Autos...Decent interior space and cargo capacity. Cons: I've owned this car for 6 years since new... be aware that maintenance costs are ridicously expensive, all original parts are made in Europe and cost 2-3 times more than the Japanese and American brands. I don't recommend after market parts for this car, don't perform that well. It's not the type of car you take to a Jiffy Lube for service, not everyone carries Volvo parts, even oil filter, transmission opil is hard to find and try to get a quote at the dealer, you won't be happy. Brake pads, rotors, tires wear off quickly and are very expensive... |
