Looking at 52/03 S60s, 2.0T or 2.4T?
Discussion
Hi guys,
New to the Volvo section, I'm here as my Audi V6 has just catastrophically expired and I'm on the hunt for a car. Always had a soft spot for the S60 and now find myself looking at 2002-2003 examples with 85k-90k on the clock.
Thought I'd turn to the PH massive to ask if there's anything I should be aware of with regard to either the 2.0T or 2.4T engines? Does either have any weak points? Is the extra 20bhp noticeable? I'm leaning towards the 2.4T but there seem to be more 2.0Ts around, plus the insurance is slightly cheaper (I'm a 20 year old student so this still matters... a bit ) Oh, and it will be a manual, so don't worry about Geartronic horror stories!
Any advice would be greatly received.
Thanks
Adam
