A review of the Volvo V50 2.0 has been posted over at PaulTan. 'The V50 appears compact, and studying the dimensions reveal that it's shorter than a Honda Civic. The Volvo is about the length of a 3-Series Touring, although the Swede's 2,640 mm wheelbase is a good 120 mm shorter than the BMW's. That doesn't sound promising, since the current E90 isn't exactly what one would call spacious at the back; in practice, legroom is far from generous but not constricting either, and there's room under the front seats for you to tuck your feet into. Typical of Volvo, seats are comfy and the rear bench features built-in child booster seats that pop up.'
