Newest Review: ... fixed (supposedly) twice more, gutted again, completely revamped etc, etc by Volvo but it still changes DOWN gear at 60 mph ... more

 ... and doesn't change UP until the engine is set to burst at 5,000 rpm plus, then, when I am comfortably cruising at 70 mph (3000rpm) it changes down 2 gears to 5.500 rpm and slows down by 15-20 mph whilst I'm trying to overtake a bicycle with a milk float giving me aggro for slowing him down. The engine sounds like a diesel until it has warmed up and it has to have a good quality new battery to start this lumbering hulk of an engine.
