Dads V70 Tdi Classic has just tipped over 180k miles. No problems except a MAF going at about 100k.

Default V40 mileage

I have a 2004 V40 1.9DS that has covered 162,000 in 8 years, it is now giving me problems so I am not sure Volvo reliability is meeting its reputation, I think mine has a renault engine so that might explain it!

[QUOTE=carl325;491918]Hi,
Just thinking maybe it would be good to se how many miles these Volvo's can do,if you post your miles,model,and age of car and any probs you've had we could get a really good thread on the go.

See who's got the highest mileage!



Mine's on 95k on a 51 plate[/QUOTE

1.9DS 2004 (115 BHP) 162,534 miles and once started runs without any issues. It is also an ex-police car so hasnt had an easy life which is reflected in the smoke stained ceiling and grubbiness of the interior, bloody coppers! too many mid morning bacon buttys and fags! why dont they go catch some bent coppers lol!

Default Volvo(Renault Engines)

Untill I bought this car,I have always disliked french cars/engines,but this one performs well with non sainsbury diesel,Always use Esso diesel.
Never use Tesco diesel,knacked up a fuel pump on my last car £1800 to replace at Volvo,they recommended Esso.
