Hello,

Maybe, you've already discussed this question, I just didn't find a list of cars, built by Ford as they took Volvo over after 1999 (?). What I know is, that all the older models, like 2xx,3xx,4xx,7xx,850,9xx were all original volvo volvo's. What about the V70 or V90? And V40/S40?
Do you think, things has changed, since Ford took Volvo over? Or would you recommend to buy a new volvo?

The only volvo that is a ford if you get what i mean is the S40/V50's as they share many parts with the new ford focus.

Volvo will be releasing there version of the focus ST next year, the C30 and ford will be releasing there version of the new C70 next year focus canvertable

New volvo it all depends what sort of money your looking to spend, personally i would get a new S60 D5 if i could afford one as the new D5's have 180bhp and a six speed box if you get a manual
