2001 Volvo S60 T5 review from UK and Ireland
"Good looking, powerful and safe"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Busted rear shock absorber.
Remote control needed re-programming.
Drivers door lock needed replacing.
General comments?
The car is very quiet, even quieter than the 5 series. The seats are extremely comfortable, I am not aware of any that offer such support.
The performance is electric and the gear change smooth.
My only complaint is that with low profile tyres fitted the ride is a little on the hard side- certainly not as smooth as a 5 series.
