glock19, I asked the same question. No definite answer but I did suggest a
V40. 850GLE hesitated when I said whether he's going for the T5 or not!!

Hi glock19, cap48 & friends,
I really have no idea yet. Tell you what is going in my head.

Choices available.
1) 850T5. Adv – Powerful & affordable. Disadv-Difficult to park in tight
parking area.
2) S40(previous model).Adv-Easy to park. Disadv-quite cramp for a family
of 5.
3) New Nazaria.Adv-Lots of space & under warranty. Disadv-F.C.
4) New Camry.Adv-Promo-$8888 discount & latest Jap technology.Disadv-
Costly & not as powerful as Volvo.

So I have decided to sell my precious 850GLE first, then decide which car
to buy later.

Any input/advice from sifu-sifu, guru-guru & Volvo master out there?
ThumbUp

850GLE,

slight change of plan. my dad wants one instead. i'll give you a ring
the next time i'm in kl, but really unsure when that'd be, judging at the
current workload.

for you, get the V50 lah!!
