Used 1995 Volvo 850 Sedan Consumer Reviews
This car kicks it
An extraordinary Volvo for its time, race proven and with all of the safety features. The car is a diamond in the rough. With a few simple modifications you will elicit extraordinary performance. Body roll is excessive however and the tires are too low profile.
Volvo 850 Turbo 95
In 1995, the Volvo Turbo was the best value: for a luxury performance sedan, it had the best price. It also had the best mix of safety with an ability to hold the road and accelerate. However, the cost of Volvo parts is obscene--worse than Mercedes and on a par with BMW.
Volvo 850 Turbo-- Great car
Solid, well built car, with excellent safety features. On long trips I can get around 29 mpg; which is excellent considering it is a turbo! After this year, to me, Volvo's began to be made cheaply; they cut back and cut corners. Look at a 1995 850 Volvo in and out, then go to a dealer and look at its new incantation as the S70.
Great car.........
I just recently purchased my volvo,it has high milage but it runs like a dream.Gas milage is great compared to my Maxima.Interior finish is good but there's quit a bit of rattling while driving.It's a extremely fun car to drive though sometimes the ride is rough.Overall ,it's a great car.Very reliable.
Wonderful car
I bought this car new in '95 and sold it in '03 to my neighbor. This was a very nice car, and I took good care of it, so it ran well and looked great when I sold it. Regular maintenance means everything! Volvo NEVER failed to take care of any warranty issue I had without arguement. It had adequate power, and was very comfortable to drive. I had very few failures during my ownership, and felt very safe driving it. I now drive an S60 based on the positive experience I had owning this car.
