Hello, I am just looking for a car and had actually already set me on a V50 with the 1.8 petrol. Now an acquaintance of the 2.0 diesel would still be worth it despite everything at 15,000 a year. Invoice is: with fuel price 1.50: petroler with average 8.5 l = 1912 Euro diesel with average 6.5 l = 1460 Euro This saves you about 450 Euro per year, that should last forever for the extra expenditure with the tax. The more expensive the fuel, the faster the diesel then calculates itself despite the same fuel price. Does the invoice at all agree. Did the diesel always pay off even because of the lower fuel prices. What about the service costs with petroler compared to the diesel? Many thanks already for the answers. vg Sven

Hello, a V50 would certainly be the more reasonable choice as the successor of my S60. But somehow I always feel like a convertible. So I would be interested in your experiences with the C70 as an everyday car. I also created a survey on this in my blog. My favorite is – of course – the C70, which would only be possible for me as a company car with the 2.0D machine. Therefore, I would be interested in what experiences you have made with such a car as an everyday car. Who drives a convertible as a first car, who has said goodbye to the convertible again to what “reasonable”? How do you solve larger transports, with trailers or is a larger car/transporter rented? How often do you drive openly, at every opportunity also in the morning, or only occasionally on a Sunday trip? Greeting, Olli

Hello together, I have a little problem and hope for your support. After 4 VW Golf I would like to switch to Volvo and have already discovered a (as I find) nice car where I would like to have your opinion and experience. Volvo v50, 2.0 Diesel(136PS) EZ 06/2008, 55tkm Momentum, plus sliding roof, bluetooth Price: ~16t€ at a Volvo Hdl. I’ve already done a test drive and except for the somewhat hackly gearbox I’m totally thrilled! But have also heard that the immobilizer makes problems, it can come to gear damage, clutch damage. How your opinion? Is the Kauf worth it? Thank you and many greetings from NRW.

I have contacted a Volvo dealer these days, because we would like the V40 well and the car as second car would fit better in size than the S40. Meanwhile there are already a few interesting annual cars in Switzerland and a diesel would be more exciting (from the consumption) than the 2.4 gasoline in the S40. The S40 is a 200 model (approved at the end of 2007) in the Momentum equipment, automatic machine with 2.4 engine, 130,000km (cozy motorway shuttles in CH) service-maintained, non-smoker, silver metallic and good in shot all around, two sets of original Alufelgen etc. Puuuh: maximum 5000 CHF (4000 EUR) I get at Volvo still for it and that even if everything is picobello (everyone knows however that there are small dents in the soft aluminium inserts in the interior etc. and these are already considered to be further depreciation, so the 5000 CHF eh fiction is less than expected. Is this normal or could be expected more for a Volvo dealer and exchange more? So it is probably more economical, the car is still worth a big difference in the price of CHF 5000.

And I don’t think it’s all right. I don’t think it’s all right. I don’t think it’s all right. It’s all right.

Hello together. I’m going crazy soon and hope someone can help me here. So my good C30, 2,0D are spinning 4 weeks. I took him out of the garage and he’s been making loud wind noises from 100 km/h. I’ve already had the following things examined myself and with the friendly one. 1) Wheel bearings –> are ok 2) Rubber seals –> all good, close very well 3) Covers, underbody. Bumper etc. –> are tight and ok 4) Sealing of the windshield –> is very good, was only renewed 1 year ago Since the noise of one on the other day has occurred and only occurs from 100 km/h, I don’t know what to do anymore. It’s pretty loud, I would say it comes from the right mototraum area. If I drive very close here from 100 km/h (i.e. below 15 m) then the noise is completely gone. So I think it has something to do with the wind. It would be nice if someone can help me or gives me a tip.

Hello C70 fan community and of course all other Volvo enthusiasts, I have after a long time thinking now finally to modify my beloved C70 still something still to modify. First was only a lowering plan. But something ridden me and I ordered with me also the Heico front spoiler flaps, as they are so nice called, too. But after a day waiting it turned out that the idea was not so bad. I am satisfied anyway and I like it. He is now 35mm deeper through H&R springs and drives still quite comfortable. The wheels are “still” series with 235/45 R 17 but 19 ” is in planning. So that’s for the first time. Now to you … how do you like it?? Greeting Winni

Hello, since yesterday it is clear: My V50 is replaced by a VW Tiguan. An XC60 was also in conversation, but I would have taken it (also for financial reasons) only with front drive. Unfortunately, Volvo is still very covered with the prices here. I was very satisfied with my V50. Over the 5 years (the exchange takes place in August) I was very pleased with the car. Now I am looking forward to the Tiguan. As said unfortunately wait until August there can be exchanged only then (company car). Greetings…

Hello, read is already a long time the complaints about high costs for parts and inspection. I drive a C30 Mj 2008 first registration 2007. I had already broken off the rear windscreen wiper for carelessness. Cost 18.75€ at the friendly. Had already scratched two wheel runs, front left 26.50€ and rear right 41€. Monage a.Part 15€, can also do “man” even if you don’t have two left hands. So I could continue with new make-up mirrors etc. Inspection costs 1st year 247€ Inspection costs 2.Year 240€ With all filters and engine oil.I could have squeezed this amount if I had only taken a “small inspection” due to the few kilometers. But if I then read inquiries for cheap rear windscreen wiper or similar and if you have to do the inspection still with the friendly one at 60,000 km I don’t understand the VOLVO-WELT anymore. Volvo is not a volume car. For the small piece numbers I find the prices very moderate.
