Volvo 760 Estate
  • Economy

    Value

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Excellent.

    Costs

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Spares pricey. Use VW parts for the engine - often half the price.

  • On the road

    Driving

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Just point and steer it does the rest effortlessly.

    Performance

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Not the reason you buy one these, but the kick down is quite impressive.

  • Living with it

    This comes with the marque, regardless of model. Every item, electrical or otherwise works - even after 16 years.

    Comfort

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Excellent. Airbags & a CD apart, this top-of-the-range has the same equipment as a current model.

  • Security and Service

    Security

    4 out of 5 4.0

    What low-life wants to wait 10 seconds while the glow plugs warm up.

    Service

    1 out of 5 1.0

    In 25 years of Volvo ownership I've never been to a franchised dealer. Have had excellent service from the specialist independents.
