The D5 has had it's 2nd cambelt, keep it or upgrade?

[Liddo]

Well, my trusty S60 D5 has 155k on the clock now and has just had a cambelt and water pump kit fitted and an oil service.
The cars been looked after all it's life, is running great and is giving 50mpg average, BUT, my feet are itching and I want another.
Do I or Don't I??? I'm looking at the newer S80's, about a 2007/08 model, but wondering is it "better the devil you know"

Sorry for waffling, I've had a beer or three ;)

If stick with what you know, never fancied the S80 myself tbh.

The newer D5 185 bhp does have some problems the emissions controls,I think the mpg is not as good in the real world as the 165 bhp.
The S80 just looks bland to me but that's just me.

Wait a couple more years and get the newer s60 a much better car than the S80 in my opinion

[Liddo]

Cheers chaps, thanks for your inputs. I actually like the new S80 look, but yes, I do like
the new S60 better, but out of my price range at the mo :)

Suppose at 150k I've got a few years left in the old girl, I just
hope my itchy feet can keep still ;) I normally change my car every
6 months, so this ones doing well :)

After my recent dyno run I've been thinking is it time for an R or something similar. But then I look at the D5 and know I've spent too much on it just to call it a day and move on.....a few more years in it for me I reckon.

I'd have it off you if you sell it mate ;)
