Want to know everything there is to know about this car?

In their own words

This is a very comfortable load-lugger which has been routinely serviced once a year at the garage it was purchased from and has given no real issues. There have been two punctures and Volvo Assistance has been there on each occasion within 30 minutes to do the replacement using the spare tyre. The car is relatively quick both from a standing start and when travelling and that provides great reassurance on all types of road. There is simply nothing to dislike about it, whether travelling with friends and all luggage, stowing golf equipment in the boot area or just pootling around.

How reliable do you find the car?

The rear trailing arm bushes had to be replaced after only 4 years wear; I complained to Volvo and was given a generous credit against the replacements
