1995 Volvo 850 GLT review from UK and Ireland
"An excellent family car which isn't too expensive to run"
General comments?
This car is built to last.
The bodywork is still without rust.
Acceleration is very good and remains good despite its age.
It's very economical @ 30 MPG urban - 40 MPG motorway.
The boot is huge!
Handling isn't the best and lets the side down.
Seat adjustment is adequate, loads of room in the back though.
