Iīm thinking to go for new T5...it was quite nice looking car,
itīs much more like S60 than old S40...it was very good to drive.
I donīt know how quick it is because in here itīs -15īc and lots of snow!

...Dreaming...

I plan on getting one in mid-summer sometime, when the 6-spd. and AWD are available. Should make a nice supplement to my 240.

Hi!

Yeah mate, i think youīll be notice little difference after 240!
AWD would be nice on my country too in the winter time, but...
I CANīT WAIT TO GET MY HANDS ON.

I saw it at the Montreal Autoshow last weekend.. it looks great!! I would like to know how much of it is Ford Focus and how much of it is real Volvo. They haven't been officially launched in Canada yet so the dealers don't have one for test drive.

Iīve been heard that new Focus, C-Max and Mazda 3 are based on the same parts, i donīt know the right word... but itīs not big deal to me, because now i drive S40 T4 -99 and it shares same parts with Mitsubishi!
So, i think it canīt get worse! :)

Iīve also considered S60, but my mom has R version,
and i donīt want to have slower version than she has!
Only down side is the price...i donīt have enough cash.
S40 T5 is almost 50% cheaper than S60R.
