Luxurious, somewhat fast, yet very problematic

When I initially saw this car, I was hooked by the twin turbo inline six that sat under the hood. I took it for a test drive and it was surprised at how quick it was, considering that it was a somewhat obese, front wheel drive luxury car. I needed a "reliable" car to drive on a daily basis (compared to the 40+ year old Datsun I had been driving) and I figured I would go with the S80. It had 160,000 miles on it, which shouldn't be too much right? Only a few days after bringing it home I noticed a whining noise from transmission... Great. Upon doing some research (which I should have done before buying the car) I found out that faulty transmissions are common for them. Although aside from that and the buggy electrical system, it's a pretty good car. It's extremely comfortable, the power steering it has makes turning a breeze, and it's a nice car to drive. However I wouldn't recommend this car to a friend.

My husband told me to place this comment on this car. We bought this car on Jan 1st. So far I really like it. We always owned luxury cars and this drives as well as my father's Rolls- Royce. He was really impressed when he drove it. Its a good family car and I feel safe driving it.

volvo touts it's safety features but it's hard to have an accident when the auto is in the shop for repairs. acelerator module, struts, turbo seal leaks are common. volvo knows this and won't recall. do i hear class action lawsuit? save yourself some headaches and look elswhere. these autos suck.
