• Seat belt extension 21 Jul 2007 (Forum)
  So try Britax,enter details in (Volvo S80, 1998-2006 model), and get a choice of two seats, both of which show that they will not fit anywhere in my vehicle. So I'm thinking I might as well stick with current seat and just try to extend the seat belt.
• Insurance and Tax on my Dads car 15 Jul 2007 (Forum)
  He has now decided to give up driving, and I have now offered to take him. As I have a Seat Altea it is far easier to use his Volvo 740 Estate to place wheel chair etc in rather than use the Altea. He still wishes to keep the Volvo as my mum uses it occasionally for the trips to the dump etc. However she can't always make it to the hospital hence me driving most weeks.

• gap between brake and gas pedal 25 Oct 2005 (Forum)
  I'm concerned in an emergency stop I might end up with my shoe going partly on the gas pedal. The gap seems awfully small between the pedals on this model. Volvo are the last company I figured that would not test all shapes and sizes of drivers. Anyone had similar experience?

• Mondeo Automatic - 2.0 or 2.5 9 Apr 2003 (Forum)
  Considering getting a Mondeo II for my next car. I am downsizing from a Volvo S80 - see my other post regarding theft and recovery of this car! Anyway, come September I am handing it back to the HP company, having achieved 50% of the payments. I want to replace it with something a little smaller, hopefully cheaper to buy and run, but with the luxuries like leather etc.

  Don't feel too sorry for me but while my Volvo is being fixed the only car the hire company had was a New 350 diesel S Class...their Fiestas were all out. Is there anyway to disable the stop start, there is no button I can find.

• 407 coupe "Concept" 1 Mar 2005 (Forum)
  It looks like a GM or Chrysler "Cab-forward" two door barge. For me, it is as desirable as a Rover 800/Volvo 262c coupe. Who would buy it?
• Choosing an Estate 29 Apr 2004 (Forum)
  Hi All I'm looking to buy an estate with about a 6K budget. So far I'm considering a Volvo V40, a Pug 406, or a Focus. Anyone got any opinions, or other recommendations. I would prefer a diesel due to economy, but an economical petrol could suffice. Thanks in advance. Carl

• Volvo S40 (2004 - ) - Company car replacement - What do I choose? 17 Jul 2009 (Forum)
  I really cannot get excited by the MkV Estate although the Jetta or Passat are possible options. Another option is a Volvo S40. We like the look and feel of the car inside although we have not had a test drive yet. Now the cheapest option for me with a well specced S40 would be the SE or SE Lux model. I could choose between the 1.6DRIVe or the 1.8 petrol.
• smallish banger 12 Dec 2007 (Forum)
  Fewer around than almeras, seem to be a bit rougher. Corollas. Not many, some really old ones. Volvo 440s. Quite a few, dirt cheap. SWMBO likes heated seats (have these in our 940), I like the cheapness and the toys in the higher spec ones. Volvo 480s. Oddball, I like them. How are they for room?
