Volvo S80 (98-05) - Review

Review by Parkers on
Volvo's executive class saloon is a worthy rival to the German class leaders. With excellent equipment and a beautifully designed cabin, the S80 is incredibly sophisticated, safe, subtle and sleek. To emphasise its market position, there's not even an estate version. Like Saab, Volvo has maintained its individuality and solid Swedish sensibilities, but not at the expense of style.

Buying used

A great used buy. Better value for money than buying a premium model with a lesser badge on its nose.

Selling

You are going to lose a fair bit come re-sale, S80 is not the first executive car to spring to mind for most buyers.
