Totally new engine, designed by Volvo with Ford money (when they owned them) to go in a range of top models... Volvos plus Focus ST, Mondeo, S/Max and Galaxy.
When Ford sold Volvo off, they had to buy the V5's from Sweden at a much more expensive price...........
When you get a replacement one, they come in a very nice (not joking) planed, pine crate. Wanted to keep the one we had......
