The 2001 Volvo S60. A good everyday vehicle.
It is a very good vehicle. Due to its age and mileage it has its problems. This particular year has transmission problems. Also the blower turns on randomly when I'm not even in the car. It is a bit sluggish when you first hit the gas, after that it is quick. It looks semi stylish. It has a very good sound system. Overall it is a very good vehicle.

Very durable model. Looks fantastic and runs with no issues
Solid as the day it came off the line. Comfortable and in great shape. Notorious for its safety as a vehicle

Volvos are the safest cars you can buy, but they're also a luxurious, fun ride.
This make is expensive to maintain, but it's literally the safest make of car one can buy, so to me the added cost is well worth it. It's a smooth ride. The styling is classic and not trendy, which fits my interests well.

Safety is the most important feature on the car.
I love the safety, sturdiness, and design of the car. The only complaints i have is the amount of gas it needs.

The gas mileage is fantastic.
I like the amount of space my vehicle has. It roomy on the inside while still being able to fit into small spaces. It is easy to drive. Gas mileage is amazing.

This car will always get you where you need to go without any worry. It is the most dependable vehicle I have ever driven.
I really like the vehicle. The back seat is a little small, and the noise from the outside is a little louder than I am used to, but it is dependable and gets great gas mileage, so I would definitely consider another such vehicle again

Great car lots of miles...
Was a great car now it is old with a lot of miles and even with a new transmission has a ton of problems. The sunroof does not work anymore. It has electrical problems. Need a new exhaust system. I live up north and it has not rusted which is great. I do feel safe in this car.

I don't think it's spacious enough and there's some kind of design flaw in the sunroof where the water pipes get clogged up and have to be cleaned out. I do like that it's a good looking car, and I do like the gas mileage it gets. Also the brakes have never been right, always way too sensitive or too loose.
It's a cute car with good gas mileage, but not comfortable for five adults.
