I am new to this forum.
At present I have an Audi S2 Coupe which has a 2.2 turbo and love it to bits. The only thing is that I have changed jobs which means I need to travel more and my car is only averaging 25 mpg and probably 28 when I take my time.
I am thinking of going for a Volvo S60 D5 as I have heard good things about this car, engine and the interior. I have had a look round a few of them and for the money they are excellent value with all the kit you get on them.
I know the engine has 163bhp (sometimes 180) but I was wondering if anyone had experience the 226bhp that rica ecu remapping puts out and wether it still returns good fuel economy.
I am looking for one in black or blue with possibly cream leather in it on an SE spec. Also is it best to go for a manual or an automatic?
Any help would be appreciated. Also is there any buying advice on these cars you could give me.
