Just as reliable...maybe even more so. Volvo evidently worked out a bunch of bugs in the 850 with the S70...but I would avoid AWD if I were you. They are prone to problems. Look for a S70 T5 model year, 1998. These do not have the dreaded ETM's which all will break and will cost about $1000 to replace. Good luck!
