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

2005 s60 d5 113k

although before this i had a vectra sold with 186k on it, original timing chain (had no issues with it until i fitted one of those dodgy tuning chips*still bitter*, would still have it now if i twasn't for that, but then i wouldn't of had such a fab car now

before that a cavlier with 174k on , sold it to a friend who scrapped it at 195k

i'm hoping this car will last a long time based on the fact i'm hoping volvo make better engines than vauxhall!

I'm hoping Volvo make a better engine than VW as the last two mk4 golf diesels i've had have been rubbish to be perfectly honest!

Hope my V40 fairs better,still with 95k it's only a baby!



Keep the mileages coming people

My S80 D5 2002 (owned for about 6mths) has done 135K and the engine is A1. I do worry sometimes about an injector problem I've heard about on engines made in about 2002, but, touch wood, no problems so far.
