Hey There
Hope u get the luck with the Volvo there mate as i and a good few others didnt..i think the model you are going for is a good one but when ur driving it listen to the wind rush from the windows, its a fault from the prod line,you will prob start seeing more about with those window shields to help with the noise, a couple of friends have had theres back a few times with no joy,you will miss the silent running of the lex..I have had massive probs with the 2 ive had but they were S40s that sufferd huge electrical problems..they dont seem to like below zero temps and like to break down alot..the last one had a clutch/gearbox/fuelpump/oil pump/and loads of ECU/BCU and sensor faults thats before it hit 50k...They claim to have a 27 year life span..thats because they are in the work shops for most of it :P good luck with your mate i know some guys with 200k on and have had few probs
Regard.....Steve
