5 star review

Cheers: Fuel efficient Comfortable Flexible The total economy makes it a good buy. Jeers: Overpriced Comments: The most environmental Volvo so far beside the C30 1,6D. It’s easy to get a brief overview, easy to reach and easy to use the buttons, they are accessable and approachable. There’s been a lot of talk about the cup holders and where to storage junk but hey isn’t it like that if you don’t have anywhere to storage it, it wont be left there. Overall , it’s exactly what I had expected where fuel consumption, station-wagon,environmental awareness and the overall total economy were my top issues. I went from a petrol driven VW Golf III 1,6 -03 to the brand new Volvo V50 1,6 Diesel and SAVED about a ? 50 a month (I drive long distances). This was one of my best car buys I’ve done. If I wasn’t in need of a station wagon (my dog) I’d go for the C30 1,6D Efficiency that comes out this spring and save even more money. But unfortually that car is too small for us. I will for sure test drive it though and see what I will miss.

I like the car very much to be this small engine and low consuming it is nice to drive. BUT several 3times noe the engine have suddenly lost power during driving. the engine dont rev over 2800rpm and max speed is around 60kph The volvo dealer have not been able to trace the error and complain that it is so hard to investigate due to that the error is gone when they recive the vehicle. Problem is temporarly gone when when cykle the ignition - and workshop are never open in the evenings or hollidays when it happens. please could anyone with similar problem send the VIN number so I can Investigate what the solutions have been for your cars d.andersson@hrmritline.se

Reliable, safe and pratical, as you’d expect from a Volvo. The V50 is a lot better looking than most Volvos and has some nice sporty details inside. Great to drive and handles perfectly. I’m extremely pleased with this car. I’m only giving it 4 out f 5 because there is a little more engine noise than I would like but I wouldn’t say it’s intrusive. Very good car.
