It's an amazing car
If maintained properly is the perfect car
Very economical and reliable
some parts are to be replaced after 10 t0 15 years such as heater core and throttle body (that can be cleaned up) and you have a great car
The t5 is the best and more reliable with an engine that can last forever.

Poor design decisions...
Someone decided to design this car so that if it recognizes a key that it thinks does not belong to the car start it, it turns off right away. I had several years of bringing it to different mechanics trying to figure out what was wrong and how to fix it. Finally a guy in Tillsonburg simply cleaned the ignition lines or something and I have been able to start it since then!
Other problems: The dashboard squeaks, the driver side window insulation came off so now you can hear the wind and some water leaks in. The back power windows got stuck and wouldn't go up so instead of paying hundreds of dollars to fix, I asked them to just fix them so they don't open. After I'd had the car about a year, the timing belt fell off, ruined the engine and I had to pay 3500 for a completely new engine. When the genius replaced the engine, the air conditioning stopped working. I've paid to try and get to the bottom of it to no avail. Maybe just this car is a particular lemon, but I just think it's bad design.

Reliable and Dependable
Easily repaired and usually only needs it done once, as it ages the plastic becomes brittle so be careful when taking apart and putting back together. Overall it is a great car and if treated well will give many kilometers of service.

Typical Volvo perfection
We've had this since 2000, and it's been an excellent family and single person vehicle. Pack it full, no problem, 2000 km road trip, no problem. With appropriate tires, its an easy handling, comfortable sedan all year round. Now at 269k, still lots of life left. A few repairs coming up but all minor and not repeat fixes. Any good Volvo mechanic will know everything about the tendencies. A very good used buy, even after 12 years ! I expect we'll get 400k out of her!!
