As you'd expect, the Volvo V50 Sportswagon is supported by a comprehensive warranty. The standard mechanical warranty is three years/60,000 miles (whichever comes first), plus there's a three-year unlimited-mileage warranty on the paintwork and 12 years' cover against rust perforation. In addition, all Volvos are covered by one year's free RAC cover, which provides full breakdown and recovery assistance, anywhere in Europe, 24 hours a day.

Volvo also offers competitive Volvo Owners insurance with tailored protection, while Volvo Car Finance can make a new Volvo V50 surprisingly affordable.
