2001 Volvo S60 TS review from UK and Ireland
"Even in standard form, this car is far more fun to own than my Honda Accord Type R was"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Passenger door handle retaining bolt sheared off by repeated (very) hard slamming that saw my girl grounded!
Fuel level display indicator not functioning.
General comments?
A road warrior, incognito - very cheap project car.
Best looking saloon with styling features simply not witnessed in other manufacturer's products.
Little money required to turn this S60 2.0T into a muscle car with double the torque of an Accord Type R (UK spec), and a touch more BHP through traction control that the Honda does not include as standard.
Police and vandals seem to look past you, in search of more obvious targets.
