1997 Volvo S70 T5 review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The electric aerial sometimes decides to not fully retract, nothing else, not even a squeek.
General comments?
A family car which neatly disguises the fact that it has 240bhp under the bonnet. Suspension on standard car not sufficient for the power but fitting lowered springs sorts the problem out. Power must be delivered gently to avoid shredding front tyres. Next time you come across a T5 try one out!
