QUOTE(chizzu @ Mar 13 2013, 07:14 PM) No love for Volvo? Am contemplating between Volvo S60 and VW Passat i've sat in the new s60....damn solid car...sit inside close the door it sounds like closing a bunker....i regularly travel in friend's audi A4....can say that volvo build quality is almost the same as the A4s....door closing sound is more satisfying in the volvo...

QUOTE(yuanyi @ Mar 14 2013, 05:53 PM) Same here man. 850r... Greatest volvo ever made I believe. I'm currently driving a 854,97. No turbo.. :/ abit off cause of that. Apart from that, great handling, great car! I saw quite a number of 850r and t5s on mudah, check it out! i think 99% of "850r" on mudah are fake transplanted cars...

QUOTE(Sotsotzaii @ Aug 30 2015, 12:51 PM) Hi volvo sifus , newbie here, I got a quite old volvo s60, but still new enough to have all the features and stuff. One question, mine is a 2.0 litre with a T beside it, and I'm assuming the T stands for Turbocharged, so it means my car comes with a in-built turbo? How does that works? And how do I know if my turbo is actually working ? yes i think it comes with a turbocharged engines, even very old volvos have turbos. most modern engines have intelligent programming to make sure that turbolag is non-existent. basically, if u have driven naturally aspirated (no turbos or supercharger) all your life, u have to rev the engine to quite a high rpm before the full horses kick in. with turbos, engines can achieve maximum power at lower rpm. with old turbo engines with noticeable turbolag, u can experience it in such a way....basically when u floor the throttle, the car goes slow, slow, slow until it reaches the rpm where the turbo will kick in and u feel a sudden rush of power.

QUOTE(IpohLad @ May 7 2016, 09:51 AM) Seen this bad boy in flesh the first time. OMG it's fxxxxxg stunningly build. It's definitely worth every penny. But its a CBU R-Design direct from Sweden so might feel different when they turn it to CKD in Malaysia. Can't wait to test drive it. [attachmentid=6582344] what is that? s60? i don't think it's XC90 is it? Volvo Malaysia should provide a cheaper option for R-Design package as not everybody likes the understated style.

QUOTE(satelitewhs @ May 7 2016, 12:54 PM) It looks like the new XC90 to me. The round knob seat control located near the end/front of the seat has a small lever to change the control function. This driver's seat has 14 ways to adjust the seat. if it's so. wondering if IpohLad took the pic locally. R-Design for new XC90 is currently not available. I hope things will change. The Bursting Blue R-Design is fantastic!
