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

  • Economy

    Costs

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Good fuel consumption, though servicing costs are high and expect to change a couple of tyres each year. Amounts to nearly £500.00 a year!

  • On the road

    Driving

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Excellent driver's car, even though it's a diesel. Loads of torque and the power's there when you need it.

    Performance

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Performance is good for a diesel.

  • Living with it

    Image

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Volvo's image is getting better.

    Comfort

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Very comfortable.

  • Security and Service

    Security

    4 out of 5 4.0

    T2 alarm and immobiliser. Standard factory security fittings.

    Service

    1 out of 5 1.0

    Volvo's (main) customer service has been terrible. Individual garages have been fair, but their main centre is unhelpful - they tell you they will call back then don't. Not the way to run a business.
