Volvo V50 reviews
Total 22 Volvo V50 owner reviews
Pros: The engine is powerful and the suspension is quite soft. Trunk big enough for prams and small bike. If the engine is well maintained then the consumption of 5-6l Diesel
Cons: Steering fingers and other suspension changed - but they are stuff.
The weak point is the flywheel and startup problems.
