only one thing i had an issue with when we had one for the weekend for a test drive...... the headrests do not come off and are in an awkward position for installing car seats nicely!sorry, can't be any more helpful - that point alone put me off.

Thanks, that is helpful. Isaiah will be rear-facing another couple of years but we may keep the car longer than that. I'll bring a RN and MA when we test drive.

I have the S60 and the seats are the same. The Marathon and RA fit great in it, both RF and FF with no interference from the headrest FF. I've also had a FF RN in it without problems. Oh, and a FR85 installs well too. The TrueFit is a definite no-go, I never could get an acceptable install in either direction but not a problem for me because I grew to hate that seat and will never own another one.


One thing I don't like is the latch anchors are buried deep in the seat bight and it's so tight, I've never been able to use them. Otherwise I love my Volvo and we plan to give our S60 to our teenage DD next spring and buy the XC90:)

This is especially helpful since I was coveting a TFP. Guess you just saved me some $$. :)

Nicole told me to avoid teh V6 engine but all others are fine so I think this is the car we are going to go with once we can find a quality used one! Yay!
