I'm thinking of buying one of these, probably the 2.5 petrol (non-turbo) estate version, but maybe the 2.3 Turbo (T5) as these seem quite a bit cheaper. I'm reasonably experienced at buying older cars and a very competent home mechanic but have no experience of Volvos or this model. Does anyone have any tips for particular things to look out for on this model ?
Also, is the turbo lag a problem on the 2.3? I had a 1.8TD Ford once and found the turbo lag a major problem in town (which is where most of my driving occurs). Thank you in advance. Steve
