1995 Volvo 850 T5 CD Saloon review from UK and Ireland
"Get one soon!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I bought the car knowing it needed a new clutch for £550, and 2 new tyres Pirelli P Zero for £280.
Only thing to go wrong - a brake light!
General comments?
This car is the CD model.
Leather, traction, climate, cruise, CD changer... Jesus it is absolutely class!!!
It has had a modification done to the turbo - a "TPiece" fitted, which give the turbo 100% compression all of the time, my car is now pushing out 285BHP!!!
Believe me it is so quick.
I love this car more than my wife!
I only paid £5000, it is a 96 N, with 106,000 on the clock. BARGAIN.
