Passenger door handle retaining bolt sheared off by repeated (very) hard slamming that saw my girl grounded!
Fuel level display indicator not functioning.
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.
Is it faster than the accord type r in standard form?
What have you done to it? I sometimes feel mine could do with a bit more pep.
I hear 230 bhp is easily achievable.
No it's quite a way slower than a Type R as standard, but frankly it's not a sports car. It was never meant to be. Everything is set up for comfort and ease of use rather than dynamics or feel.
The 2.0T makes 180 bhp as standard. 0-60 in 8.2 seconds and 140 mph according to Autocar. Don't forget though, this is the entry level model. There is no such thing as a slow S60.
The 2.4T makes 200 bhp, the T5 250 bhp and the R 300 bhp. They're bombproof engines which can easily take sensible tuning. 230 bhp is easily available for the 2.0T and the T5 engine is now legendary for its ability to be tweaked to ridiculous outputs. 400+ bhp is available if you have the money to spend.
Wouldn't want that through the front wheels though, but each to their own.
