After my trusty Passat began to have gearbox issues I decided it was time to get rid, I'd had it 5 years and it was a faithful servant for motorway duties.

I was going to get something similar for my numerous motorway runs until I noticed some PHers mentioning Volvo S60's as ideal motorway cars.

I acted on that advice and bought myself this D5 for £1900 with FSH and 96000 miles on the clock (new timing belt just fitted).

It was a car I'd never thought about, so many thanks for the excellent advice thumbup

It has excellent refinement, a great engine and appears very dependable. The seats and ICE are superb too.







Supreme comfort for a pittance, leaves me money for other toys too - highly recommended smile
