    From Volvo T5 to My 1st Mercedes

    As a long time Ovlov fan, I was looking to replace my T5 S60, that's the 250bhp Turbo, with , well to be honest another. But, long story short I bought a 2004 CLK 200 Kompressor Avantgarde. I am well impressed :thumb:, its comfy,can lift its skirts to trot down the road, and has lots of buttons...

    So Happy to be aboard

    Hello everyone, I have arrived here courtesy of a red 220 cdi sport estate. I am very impressed with it. With 150k on the clock it runs as smooth as my V70 diesel did at 35k when I said good bye to that. My wife passed away last year just as we were taking delivery of an XC60 and apart from the...

    Volvo's new run off road accident test

    Quite spectalar and major on seat belt tensioning and seat construction to mimise the effects of vertical acceleration! Possibly a situation more familiar to drivers on unmade roads in Scandanavia than commuters on the M25.;) [YOUTUBE HD]irNnjxvUUww[/YOUTUBE HD]

    2001 Volvo V70 Estate - Lunar Mileage

    Greetings all, Firstly let me say this isn't mine - it belongs to my boss. He's had it from ~18 months old, but it's getting a bit long in the tooth for piling round Europe, as he does on a regular basis. Just passed its MOT (2 bulbs needed!), it's time to put it out to pasture. I've known it...

    Volvo V60

    Just had a drive of a V60 here in Russia (yes, I'm on my winter break - even though it's more like spring here with no sub zero temps yet!) and am thinking it could make a nice change from the Toyota. I like Volvos having had a faultless S60 a few years ago. I was wondering, has anyone any...

    Mercedes, Volvo and VW on Fifth Gear

    On Fifth Gear last evening saw a demonstration of automatic breaking systems. VW Up has city brake which works well, as do the systems fitted to the Volvo V40 and S Class. Raise the speed, however, and the VW has to sit it out, the Volvo slows from around 50 and avoids the slower moving...

    MB could learn from Volvo

    I have to say I am not a major fan of Volvo but there is a nifty idea on the XC90 (and maybe on other models) . What is it? Well, to remove the headlight, all you have to do is lift up 2 grey plastic strips and out comes the headlight. It could not be simpler. Mb along with loads of other car...
