this is my dream car, im 21 years old and been looking forward to buy this beautiful car, my dad had this car back in the day, but he had to sell it because when its on bad shape,my dad just had to sell it cause couldnt afford the repair cost, i remember when he always says he wants to buy this car back but a few months ago he died...and im gonna fullfil what he wanted, and i want to buy this car because i love it too! love you dad!
I'm glad to see that written down! So far the S80 replacement, ie. The S90 underwhelms me. I worry as some other models look so right. The current generation model I drive is def a Volvo but not as comfortable and a little skimpy too on Trim Inserts.

That is a very awesome and very well-kept car. TwinTurbo V6 is and the twin charged 2.0 L four-cylinder that Volvo currently uses in their new products maybe more fuel-efficient than a V-8, but you just can’t beat the sound of a V-8. No four-cylinder can match the sound.
comradesanya I am aware of that. I’m just saying that other companies, ford comes to mind here, is seeming to get rid of their naturally aspirated V-8 engines in favor of a TwinTurbo V6. And Volvo is doing away with all of their other engines, it seems like, except for the variations of the 2.0 L turbocharged and supercharged in line for cylinder.
Oh, now I see what you mean. Unfortunately this is what the future brings. Smaller, more complicated engines that will die before they hit 100 000 km in Russia (because of crappy fuel, oil and severe duty).
We do have premuim oil and petrol here, Russia is not Afrika. Yea, there are lots of counterfeit products, but still. What kills engines here is mostly lots of dirt that gets in radiator, so new high-temperature engines get constantly overheated. Plus cold winters, many people do not warm up their engines before driving.
My first car is going to be a 2017 Volvo s60 awd inscription with the straight 6 engine. It is my step grandmother's. She got it from Darrell Waltrip Volvo of Franklin Tennessee. She also has a 2016 Mercedes-benz S550 4matic which is her longer interstate cruiser

That's a fine example of a beautiful Volvo. I have the Xc90 V8.....Love it to bits, but I would do a trade for this S80.... I don't need the mega-space of the Xc90 anymore.
The Volvo I bought came from a sketchy salesman and ended up having the transmission go out within 2 months :(. The best car EVER, drove so smoothly and quietly and was SO comfortable. It breaks my heart.
@@femboyellie I actually had a 2007 S80 V8 Volvo. It was funny because the guy was genuinely really sketchy. We brought up the transmission issue and he took it to his friends' auto shop, they said the car was perfectly fine and sent it right back to us. Drove it up to Memphis's Volvo dealership the next day or so and they told us then and there, that transmission's gonna cost you 1500. Drove it back home, and whaddya know, transmission is out. What an experience!
Lovely modern classic example. The perforated leather is a little worn for the low mileage, personally I always prefer the non perforated 'Scottish Hyde' Volvo use, it looks better and stays fresher with care.
@@patagualianmostly7437 I've to pick up a newer S80 with perforated Inscription Leather, that looks fantastic in pics. I'm hoping it looks as good in real life, if it does, my mind could be changed :)
@@patagualianmostly7437 The reason the seats are perforated is because it has ventilated seats. You can't do that unless you perforate the leather, as it's the only way you can get air to pass through.
Is the only thing that's difference between the base model and this is the engine? I am very curious to know because this video seriously got me interested into buying one.
Léon Beaufort go for it. I have a 2007 S80 Summum D5, I love it. Sometimes during maintenance i get to borrow brand new Renaults and honestly this 12 year old car is miles ahead and i wouldnt swap even if it was free. And the V8 version is honestly the best sounding car you can get for less than ~7000 USD.
kewlbrz07 ..... they wont be doing much longer as they introduce electric cars.....choice is becoming more and more limited with diesel or petrol engines and manufacturers are intentionally offering underpowered vehicles for sale knowing buyers will make electric their next buy
I only saw one v8 s80 in my life (that i would know of).. but it was quite special, it was used by Monica Bellucci:) Yes v8s are rare here due to road tax and fuel cost..
My dad has one of these beautiful vehicle unfortounatly the original transmission went out so we are replacing it withvanother transmission it is a fun car to drive and the only thing it's missing is navi
@AlHamza Al-Ghazawi my 2010 started cracking the leather shortly after I bought it. I still drive the car, but it hurts that the only issue is the interior leather falling apart
@AlHamza Al-Ghazawi well he ment that it does wear off after time a lot, especially light leather interior that looks awful after use, dark half leather would be best. I didnt notice too much wear on other parts than seats
I like the new 4-cylinder engines as well. In my opinion, I6 and V8 engines just aren't meant for Volvo, although I do wish they still had their 5 cylinder diesels. If I were to buy a modern Volvo, I would go for the D5 AWD anyways (in the V90, stunning machine).

What a beautiful car. Volvo makes some of the most beautiful cars ever. Simple and elegant. I loved this review. Keep up the good work!
It's hard to believe this car was made in 2008. It's a beautiful machine.
meh, the differential doesnt last
@@djkasdjkasdjdjdjupgrade
This car is way ahead of it's time with all that tech today's cars have now😂
in addition to the general shape and silhouette of the car, most sedans now even mazda, chevy and honda have the same low stance with shark fin
Yes I just bought one now July/2021 and omg the features are kinda crazy. It's almost u believable for some reason all the stuff it had.

I remember when I first saw a 99’ S80 and just fell in love. I wanted one sooo bad and they have only gotten better! Nice review. Thanks Jake
Volvo should've made a r design for this thing. Would've been B A D A S S
Volvo S80 R V8 4.4 😳
Imagine it with a dct 😮💨
@@duncanhoward1179 DCT would be cool, but a proper manual would suit this car amazing I think. But since this is supposed to be a luxury cruiser It would likely never happen
This is meant to be their luxury line. The s60R is sufficient
This has the tech package too!! Wow. What a rare beast.
Damn, that naturally aspirated V8 sounds very good!
even better cold start! Add a race exhaust, its then better than most american V8's imo.. (Mustang owner)
Thanks to the Yamaha Motors 😅
that's a gem! I drive an s80. No V8, no tech package, No bliss.
I absolutely love these. Such a beautiful car

Volvo never had V6 engines, all of their engines are inline except this V8 which is built in Japan by Yamaha and based on Volvo designs.

What ever she payes she will get a good car, i´ts a volvo.
When u turn ur shifter to the left to “manual” u first turn it into sport. When u go up or down it is manual.
That is not true of the older US spec Volvos. They don't have S mode. Manual only.

How did you fold the mirrors when being in car?
Sarunas M press both right and left mirror button at the same time and they will fold in/out
You can also press one of them while reversing and it will angle downwards so that you can easily see the the curb for example while parking
Plebasaurus Rekt ...... shouldnt need that with a reverse camera
Opens a hood everthing is fantastic, but power steering fluid is below min lol
This is car Volvo S80 2008 best from s80 2020 special from the inside , thanks
