The one 850, the other not. What buoys which seven cylinders difference well. Let alone that 156 hp. These two namesakes ass to ass screaming for a keuzemoment.

Left the Volvo 850 T-5 Estate of spotter kevinc3. A 2.3 liter five cylinder injection engine, good for 225 horsepower. 1600 kg clean on the hook, and a 0-100 sprint in, what, 7.5 seconds? But in this burly swede you have the cargo space to about. And the timeless blokkendozendesign is anno 2014 iconic.

On the right the mighty BMW 850, which, with its 5.5 liter twaalfcilinder 381 horsepower through the rear wheels on the asphalt claps. With 1875 pounds heavier than the Swede, but even so, ‘ie 0-100 in six seconds. Of course, can not be otherwise, with such a powerhouse under the hood. The top? According to the German mores of 250 km/h.

Total apples to oranges of course, but the spot we can appreciate. More photos can be found on Autojunk.nl!
