Pros: Comfortable seats, sound system, truck space, engine, automatic interior cooling system when car is off. Cons: Numerous electrical problems, soft handling, CD Changer in trunk skips The Bottom Line: I would think twice before buying this car new or used, BMW and Mercedes would probably give you a better quality car plus more overall enjoyment.
After having to sell my 2002 BMW 325i (see my review) because I needed more back seat space for my kids, I decided to try the "certified" pre-owned route and buy the 2002 Volvo S80 T6. Mine was silver with the charcoal leather interior. The car was very ...

Volvo S80 2.9l bought with 50k in March of 06. I have too had some headlight and taillight failures, but all you have to do is disconnect the bulb check it over, and reinstall it. That only takes a few minutes and not a real good reason to take it to the ...

Pros: Powerful, quick, great MPG, comfortable, trunk space, safe. Cons: Headlamp seal replaced in 2 years. The Bottom Line: Excellent car, buy with T6 engine for power and better gas mileage. Safe, comfortable, storage space, reliable, I would buy again.
Sorry the other reviewer has problems. That can happen in a BMW, Mercedes or other fine car (maybe not Lexus). My Volvo has been excellent to date. I was fortunate with my first Volvo. I found a 2002 S80 T6 at the Volvo dealer in October 2003, never ...

Pros: Beautiful, comfortable, fast, safety, price Cons: none The Bottom Line: Safety, dynamic, beautiful and comfortable car. The best relation between price and quality. If you are looking for this kinds - Volvo is your choice.
If you have some money (more than $35000) and you want to buy a new car, a lot of problems appears: where to buy, how to buy, and, the most important question, WHAT?
You can buy Mers, BMW or an other dutch car, but relation between quality and price...

Pros: The style of a Mercedes the safety of a 747 and reliability of a Toyota. Cons: Non found for the moment. The Bottom Line: The Volvo is the number one choice for a family vehicle and even if you don't have a family this is the perfect day to day car.
Before I beging I have to say, I was impress. The volvo S80 was more than I expected, I am a car fan and perhaps freak. I research a lot about car and all my reviews will be about cars. And from all of the cars I have research this is it. The Volvo S80....

Pros: comfortable, very smooth ride, nice stereo, safe Cons: a little big in size for me The Bottom Line: I would highly recommend this car to anyone who is looking for a luxurious, respectable, and yet affordable car.
When my dad bought the new 2002 Volvo S80, I was so excited. I had seen it on commercials, and was happy to be a proud owner of my very own S80 sedan Volvo. When we first bought it, I was eager to be driven in it, because I hadn't yet received a...

Pros: Big Trunk, comfortable, good gas mileage for full size car,
good stereo, Safe Cons: None reallyto
I leased my 2.9 S 80 about 2 years ago. It has 27,000 miles on it. Except the headlight going out there have been no problems. Excellent ride, good fuel mileage (about 25 mpg average) and plenty of power when you want it. 22 gallon tank means you don't have to fill up every few days like some gas guzzlers. My neighbor says it rids better than his cadillac. Nuff said I really like the car.
