A mechanic reveals the car he would buy if he were looking for a cheap and reliable one: "It's a very safe bet and number one in safety."

If you're thinking about buying a used car, you're bound to search and ask yourself which would be the best option in terms of both affordability and reliability. There's so much on the market, it's sometimes hard to decide.

Faced with this difficult choice, a mechanic has revealed his favorite option and why he would choose this car. In fact, he assures that "if it's well maintained and you buy it from the right person, it can get you between 600,000 and 800,000 kilometers."

The car in question is a Volvo S60, whose qualities make it the perfect fit for this mechanic. "We're talking about a five-cylinder engine with incredible power and reliability. If you buy it from the right person, it's a very safe bet," he explains.

“Despite being a 2005 model, don't think it's an old, uncomfortable, or unsafe car. Volvo is number one in safety. It delivers very impressive, very consistent power, and aside from the Bluetooth and audio features, which are quite a few things you can do, it's a car that's almost a safe bet for family trips or as a first-timer,” the mechanic insists.

In short, he argues that it's a good option due to its performance, safety, and price. "It's a quality car that's affordable for many people," he summarizes.
