The 2007 Volvo V50 for buyers
No 2007 Volvo V50 is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. This page puts the 2007 Volvo V50 in plain words for buyers: what it uses, what to check, and how to try one first.
Before you sign for the V50
Owners filed 6 complaints with NHTSA, most often about tires, child seat and electrical system; have those parts checked. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay.
The numbers in plain words
Power comes from the 2.4L 5-cylinder, driving through a 5-speed automatic. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
It is rated 10.2 L/100 km combined: about 31 litres every 300 km. A weekend of 300 km comes to about $53.55 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$3,550 a year for 15,000 miles.
Inside and out
As a wagon, it has the length of a car with a bigger load space at the back. EPA lists 906 litres of luggage space, enough for bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.
Is it right for your trip?
It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.
A longer test drive
Rent the V50 for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent the V50 first, and buy only if it fits your life.
What it costs to run
The EPA estimates US$3,550 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Premium gas adds to the running cost compared with a car on regular. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $17.85 in fuel.
Year and trim
Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.
