Volvo 850 parts

In the early 90’s of the last century Volvo launched the first Volvo with a front wheel drive. It was the predecessor of the later Volvo V70. Several years later the first Volvo V40 was produced. The 850, iconic for its time. Think of the legendary 850 GLT and the 850 R in the cream yellow color. Volvo introduced the 850 sedan and the 850 estate. The estate is a real family car. Nordicar always has a 850 for sale. Take a look at our website for our 850 occassions. A new era for Volvo models that fit the current street scene. Volvo stands for safety. This has been proven with the arrival of the Volvo 850 in 1991. The Side Impact Protection System was launched. Airbags around the passengers. Safety above all! The inside and upholstery got a fresh look and appealed to a younger audience. With a second-hand Volvo 850 you can still look good these days.

Beside the standard 5-cylinder engines, Volvo has developed Turbo engines which deliver 240 pk in the Volvo 850 T5 and the 850R 850 T5R. The Cream Yellow is the most iconic 850R which still is a striking appearance. The 850R was also delivered in black. Special variants are equipped with Four Wheel Drive (AWD). There are no big differences between the 850 T5 and the 850R 850 T5R models. For example the engine power under the hood is an important one. The 850R was equipped with Alcantara leather seats, large brake discs, brake pads and often with a number of options like a sliding roof, wood inlay dashboard and Premium Sound System Radio.

The magazine “Autoweek” tested a Volvo 850 T-5R my 1994 which had almost 640.000 kilometers on its counter. The condition of the car is remarkable after so many years and so many miles. This proves the quality of the car and the Volvo parts that have been used. We get 850’s in our shop in Heerhugowaard every week. A counter reading of 500.000 km. doesn’t surprise us anymore. The petrol engines as well as the VW diesel engines are indestructible. Good maintenance is the preservation of your Volvo. Do replace your engine oil, brake pads and timing belt on a regular basis. The exhaust might be the best part that has been used on the 850 models. The average life expectancy is 15 years. Do you need a new exhaust? See the exhaust Volvo 850 page.
