1993 Volvo 850 t5 Turbo review from UK and Ireland
"Absolutley totally amazing"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The turbo seals have blew just about a month ago.
General comments?
I have read statements on here that are bad on this car and I really don't know what to say about them.
My car is 14 years old with almost 160 000 miles on the clock and apart from my little turbo problem, my car is absolultley perfect and even though I've already been offered twice what I paid for it I will not sell it.
You will not find a more comfortable car.
Its sheer performance is breath taking.
It looks really good.
If I have an accident I'm going to walk away before the next guy.
