I've had two Volvo 850Rs (Sedan and Wagon). The both had horrible lag and they both suffer thermal heart attacks - cracks in cheap plastic radiator led to massive engine overheating requiring new cylinder heads and other work costing ~$10k!!!

When it happened to the first car I thought it was bad luck and actually paid to get it fixed. When it happened to the second car I screamed bloody murder, ask for relief from Volvo corporate (was denied), donated the car to charity and washed my hands of Volvo forever.
