Used 2005 Volvo S60 2.4 for SaleNationwide

Only had this car a few months, and I cant pick a fault with it. Got the 2.4 D5 version, old 163bhp as apposed to the newer 185bhp. Performance wise, im astonished by the amount of power this car puts out, the amount of times i find myself sat on the motorway doing 80mph, tickle the accelerator and its up to 100mph. The newer version of the S60 utilises those extra BHPs to give this car even more power! I cant really see the need, however for that older generation of Volvo drivers towing caravans it makes sense. Once again this car is no Ferrari, but for a 2.4 diesel it certainly does put some speed out when you want to. One slight criticism could be the 1st gear ratio, but thats just preference. Oh and i still cant bring myself to turn the DSTC (Traction Control) off, need and airfield for that wild ride. The interior of the S60 makes you feel cacooned, wrapped in the cockpit of the most luxurious fighter jet on the planet. The seats are unbelievably comfortable, and ive been very tempted to buy a set of ebay to turn into kitchen chairs! Ive done 4 hour straight journeys in this car and felt like ive just gone to the shops round the corner. The Dolby Pro Logic 2 Surround sound system is also superb and infact that good i havent bothered upgrading any part of it, which i was planning to do after the poor quality S40 stereo and speakers. And the centre speaker on the front dash is a very nice touch. Its certainly a long distance cruiser, built for comfort and ease of use. But for a diesel with a bit of power, more comfort than a 5 series, more reliable than a merc, and cheaper with most of the mod cons as standard it was the only decision for me.

Very comfortable, perfect for long distances. Styling is elegant but not very distinctive. Good performance but not thrilling, automatic gearbox very slow. Good fuel consumption.

Electrics are a nightmare bulb malfunctions all the time. I,m a private hire driver and do about 500 mile a week and this car is ideal apart from boot space and it's bi-fuel so I get 180 mile from £25

This car have a 2.4L 5 inline with 165hp 5 speed automatic transmission FWD STC. Good acceleration. Very very good breaking ABS and EBD. Any annoying sound inside. Very good visibility but mirrors are a bit little for parking. Really good build qualit, leather and wood for the steering wheel.
