Exclamation Volvo Forum

Oh god, I can't believe I'm typing this!

Does anyone know of/is a member of a good UK Volvo forum?

I'm considering a V50 as my next company car.

Regards

Steve

Damn good cars, I had a T5 when I was only 27, looking at getting an S60, either a T5 again or a D5, depending on how flush I feel, the S60 T5 is 250 bhp and with a remap 310, if I do that its getting debadged !

Thanks all.

My wife will be looking to get an RX8 when she finishes her maternity leave so it's not all leather arm patches and warm mild

Sadly I had a Volvo as well. It was an S40 T4, very decent cars actually. It was pretty quick but did not handle that well so changed it for an impreza.

I was always ridiculed for having a Volvo as I was only 23 at the time, but i dont regret having one, infact once i get a we bit older and loose more hair i am buying another one. this time a S60R

I've since changed my mind and gone for a Skoda Octavia. The boot in the V50 was just too small!
