Just coming up for 209000. Was doing 30k per annum until mid 2007 - only done 7k since then or it would have been higher.
Running a Rica 280 and a heavy right foot.

175,000 and still running like a new car, maybe be because she was well looked after before I got her.

I prefer her to the V70 T5 which seems to have a lag when I slam my foot down.

The 850's response is so much better.

My Main T5 has 198000 on the clock and my Spares T5 has 195000.

Being a newbie to all things volvo, im interested to know the difference between the 850 t5 engine and the v70 p1 t5 engine , if any , that makes the 850 more responsive ?? or is it just the responsivness of your particular engines ??
