    My car

    Had this car now for a little over a year and 17000 miles and no complaints. Its quick, responsive and returns an average of 40 mpg on mainly country roads.

    Driving position is fantastic, dials and instruments are clear; no rattles, squeeks or other issues with build quality. Only query would be rear leg room (I am 6'), but then I don't carry rear passengers to often.

    No visits to garage apart from scheduled servicing and a set of front tyres at 16000 miles. Volvo dealership seems OK (Squire Forneaux, Maidenhead), but the Fleet company make all the arrangments, so I have no personal contact with garage.
