[Bob France]

I understood the pre 95's were 225 bhp and up to the v70 they were 240 but I may be wrong,any other offers?

[Mrsmopp]

Nope the 850 T5 was 225bhp, the S/V70 was 240

Be happy to concede if you have proof of this. My Volvo brochure is my source.

how much proof do you need, i've got almost the full collection of press releases & not one mentions a power reduction for the normal T-5, perhaps you can go into more detail of which brochure it you've seen it in

[Mrsmopp]

I'm with Pedro on this - I'm pretty sure if that was the case I'd have at least read/heard about it by now.

It could be the italian 2.0 tax break T5 runs about 200 or 210 BHP

[AlanG]

[850 2.5 10v]

Remember that over the years "horses escape" so these are ratings for new cars (of which there are none!!)

RR is the only way to be sure....
