Purchased this car used from a Ford Dealer in August of 2011 with 46,000 KM. This car was a previous rental vehicle. I purchased this one because it was an SEL model priced at the same level as SE rental models. I said I would never buy a rental vehicle, but this one was in fabulous condition. I like how quiet this car is. Great fuel economy - we average 7.5 KM/100KM. NO PROBLEMS. Once the warranty was up, I just change the oil (do it myself), put in gas and wash it. Nice silver colour makes this vehicle look great. I did spend $300 per front seat ($600) and put in heated seats through an aftermarket vendor. I've now got 130,000 KM with no repairs. Just had pads put on the back brakes. This would be normal for this amount of KM's. I also bought winter alloy rims and snow tires. The car handles wonderfullly well in all conditions. The original summer tires - Michelin Pilots are still in great condition with great tred depth. This car is turning out to be the most reliable car I've owned.

Purchased used with 98,000KM from a Volvo dealer in September 2012. Car was well cared for by previous owner. I've had two sensors fail after putting 10,000 KM on - accelerator and transmission. I like the styling, fuel economy (regular gas), comfort and leather heated seats. I would have liked a few more options as this car is on the basic end of things. The car is quiet, which is also wonderful. Stereo is pretty good. The practicality of the small wagons is endless. I wished the car came with the roof rails...that will be an additional cost for me. The styling of this car will remain current for many years to come. The 5 cyl. engine is wonderful and smooth. Much better than 4 cyl. engines. So far so good!
