Volvo 850 Estate 2.3 T-5R 5d (1997/P) Owner Review
-
Economy
Value
Got two big dogs so really make use of all that bootspace. Integrated dog guard in the back seat is a nice touch - saved me 60 quid!
Costs
Haven't found this to be a problem yet does average miles on a tank of fuel but yet to replace the front tyres!

On the road
Driving
Very nice car to drive not always the smoothest over hard roads but pretty good all the same.
Performance
Unless you've got a Porsche or a 400bhp Japanese don't even bother. Don't let the size fool you because once that turbo kicks in you'll be left in its dust.
