Detailed review: |
I thought I really wanted a new Volvo. I drove both the S40 and S60 and the S60 was a disappointment. There wasn't a lot of power in the automatic transmission and the ride wasn't what I expected in a new Volvo.
I've owned two new Volvo's and I really tried hard to like this one. I didn't.
One minor complaint. During my test drive, the passenger side airbag cover snapped off during the interview. An embarassed salesman tried to pop it back into place.
During my S40 drive, the trim around the sunroof came off. So, overall, I was not impressed with the workmanship. |
