also as a side note and a bonus , my fuel ecconomy improved by a few mpg in all situations when I had mine MTE'd (stage one remap) last November, it totaly transformed the way the car drives/feels...very smooth and progressive..nice and driveable even in the wet ....i havent had to touch the "sport" button since having it done

i can see me sticking with mine for a long time yet also my fiancee has my old 850 20valve..been in the family for years (it was my uncles car before i had it) and still runs like clockwork

these 850s could well be one of the best Volvo series made
