Pros: What do you like about 2005 Volvo V50?
Style, features, comfort.

Cons: How would you improve 2005 Volvo V50?
This is the first year for the V50 and there are a LOT of kinks that needed to be worked out: radio tuning itself, SCU went out after warranty, replaced hoses in the air conditioning system in the first 6 months of owning, the windows roll themselves down, I have to turn the air off and then back on for it to cool properly, sometimes the radio thinks it's on, but it isn't. I'm afraid to see what's next.

2005 Volvo V50 Review:
I really love my Volvo 50, but it is quite buggy. I'd love to drive it many more years, but I'm afraid of what might go out next, so I'll have to trade it soon.
