MD13 496 Report post Posted June 5, 2017 Anyone owned something like this? V50 Might buy a touring next and this showed up on the 'other vehicles you might like'... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daniel 36 Report post Posted June 5, 2017 Unfortunately I haven't owned or driven one (yet), but those V50 models have caught my eye too. My 2 cents is that if I buy one, I'll be buying the T5. If you decide to buy a T5, try to find an AWD one, as they came in FWD too, HTH. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Olaf 3341 Report post Posted September 9, 2017 not sure what the appeal of AWD is in Volvos, they're engineered for exceptional traction in the sub-zero conditions of scandanavia... you'd be surprised how much more grip an FWD volvo offers in inclement conditions compared with a similar Subaru. Volvo parts prices in NZ will have you in tears. Its also harder to find mechanics that understand them. I've run an 855-T5 since 2006. My friend is running an 855-2.0 since 2003, and also runs a V40-T4 wagon, has plenty of fun with it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
