2005 Volvo V50 Reviews, Pricing & Specs

Performance with 220 horsepower is very adequate. Handling is ok. The car itself has not so much faults but the local service is a real joke. I like the overall appearance and interior decoration. This car is fun to drive!

Good fuel economy, brilliant transmission and good power. 200+ torque, 180bhp, with 6 air-bags. Volvo made, unbelievably tough car. That was a wagon, with big space to carry boxes, etc. Transmission is good, which is an auto-manual thing. Generally speaking, brilliant car for winter here.

It goes 0-100 km/t in 7,2 sec, 235 km/t on top. 220 bhp. It is just nice to drive. Very nice comfort, lovely design, good quality. It´s maybe not a sportscar, but it makes a good compromice

Love my car, just wish it was a tad bigger... the car seat is a snug fit but it handles GREAT

It was very, very slow. The 2.4 felt like a 1.4. But the T-4 version is a lot better apparently. I did like the stylish interior. It looks reasonable too, less Volvoid than before. Space wise, well it isn't that capacious inside, but it handles fairly well and can be punted along with reasonable confidence, more so than the V70. Build is solid- it just needs a bigger engine to shine. Nice warble to the engine tho.

Performance - Goes like a rocket Build Quality - very good but does not have enough storage space Appearance - very good looking car especially in white Cost - not to sure yet it get 9,5 km/l with me driving Fun factor - OK stability control comes in to early and auto not as responsive as I would have liked

50 mpg, heated seats, mp3, sits on the motorway at 90 all day long,, done 25,000 so far this year, thus a vulva. Not the biggest boot in the work but more than enough room for all my work gear and my dog! Dual zone a/c is a nice touch as is the auto dim mirror. Could do with bigger door pockets. Awesome sound system although mine is a factory upgrade.

finding a car that suits all your needs can be difficult. I researched different cars for months, but found that AWD wagons are hard to find in a manual transmission. I was first attracted to its different look and good price tag. The 6-speed makes great use of its available power, and the turbo makes this heavy car move when necessary. you may even surprise that Boy racer with the great low end torque, and the grip from the AWD. The braking in this car is insane, but it does come at a cost. It will eat through brakes much quicker than normal if you brake aggressively. Fuel mileage is acceptable, but not fantastic. mid-high 20's on the highway, although I was able to crack 30 on an empty highway. I could go on all day but I will cut to the chase. great safe car for the money.

I dont like the seats to hard and you can not injust them ok,I<like the engine 2,5l turbo220hp with geartronic shift

Lots of space being an estate Not shabby performance 0-60 in 9 point something Smooth acceleration and ride Computer went wrong on ours, software had to be reloaded, caused problems with turbo
