Volvo Deal

[KorruptioN]

Ever since Ford bought Volvo, it is does not have the same car quality that was the boxes on the road.

I absolutely agree with you on this statement.

However, you say, "The only thing is that Volvo cars are a POS". Anecdotal evidence doesn't give you the best credibility. You had problems with yours, yet this means everybody else will too? If you want a good, solid, reliable Volvo, get something from the 240/740/940 era. They are certainly not "POS".

Yeah, the best people to ask are actual mechanics who've worked with them. I've only driven the S60. The handling, performance and steering was crap on it but man they have the best seats in the industry bar none. Also, they are super safe cars. If I wasn't in a Volvo with the whiplash seats, I would probably be severely injured right now as I was in a major rear end accident last year. Did I go out and buy another Volvo..noo.

Not to say they suck but the S60 is pretty outdated for what you pay for compared to everyone else.

Reliability is a given for any European car especially with electronics but the engines are top notch if you take care of them.

It's really what you want in the end.

Safety and best seat are for sure. We have a 5 yrs old S60 and it's very reliable so far. No major problems, other than a few minor things. Compared to other European cars, I think Volvo is good. Of course, if you're looking for performance and sharp look, look elsewhere.
