Hi all i used to be on here years ago but its been that long with new email accounts etc I've had to get a new account. Old volvos are 850 t5, s70 t5 and up until 2 years ago a s60 d5. And now on the look out for another one as the wife's insignia is doing my head in, either another d5 or a t5 or a s40 t5

But for a 2005 with 100k+ on it, i think its over priced. Have you looked on here for advice on what issues to look out for on these cars?

What main issues do i need to look out for on the r versions, thanks martin

welcome back - I'm still 'ere

Had a look about, quiet a lot of issues with them so is it best to find one that's had most issues sorted. Or buy one off a member ( any for sale ) or maybe just a t5. Will keep looking in no rush.
