Run from the S80 (if you haven't bought it). Reliability! It also shares parts with Ford vehicles. Save yourself the sweat and get something proper.

The S60 is the continuation of the Volvo that everyone has been accustomed to. In other words, completely Swedish. A real Volvo will have 5-Cylinders (as of today). This vehicle also is not sharing parts with Ford. If you are undecided about what year to choose, the 2004 model is the most dependable. If you have no need for the AWD, stay away from it. The haldex does have its own set of issues/

Hi, I use the S70 and just bought a 2006 XC70. Volvo fuel consumption is low compared to previous models. I drive to east from lagos with a full tank and still have up-to quarter tank at the end of the 500 Km journey. Its reliable and very durable with good balance on the road. its known to be the safest car in the world to drive. they all come with about the same engine. though they have turbo engine and regular engine. I enjoy the turbo engine a lot. all volvo S series are computerized. if u have any problem with the car just make sure u use a diagnosis tool to check the car before any repairs.
