Driving my mom's S60 one last time before it goes up for sale: annarbor.craigslist.org/cto/d/ypsilanti-2002-volvo-s60-speed-manual/7648315992.html Hoping it goes to a good home!
@@djrek521 Both of them are Christophers (Tophers) and every now and then the other Topher makes a video on TheTopher channel. Maybe we could call him Topher Junior😂
You're not fooling anyone, Topher. "Substitute Topher" is secretly your son, and Tedward is your brother. I get it man, as your loyal viewers, we'll hold onto your secrets.
I remember when these first came out and thinking how much better looking they were than the previous ones. This will make someone a great little car. Very cool to see it still on the road and in good mechanical condition.👌🏽
Now this is tempting to buy, I have a soft spot for 5-cylinder Volvos. Always loved those, used to do regular maintenance on them in mechanics class in high school. Things are indestructible. Wife would probably hate me getting another car though 😂 I’ve ran out of room.
had one of these N/A s60s for 4 ish years... I think these are super underrated vehicles. they don't rust out, decently reliable and very safe for the time period, and the design has aged a lot better than most sedans of the era. IMO this was one of the last old school "utilitarian" cars volvo made before they went upmarket and started making overcomplicated, disposable vehicles. Huge plus for this one is the lack of a sunroof, as the drains are known to clog and flood the footwells.
Imo as someone who’s owned 4 p2 01-04 s60 T5s the NA sounds the best too. They have enough power as a nice commuter but are definitely by no means fast, but with minor exhaust work they sound almost identical to a v10 and imo even better than the turbo models.
@@mart43 i also live in europe but in America Manual cars were Rare, most cars were Automatic so if someone had a car with manual it was something special
We are a Volvo family as well! My daily is an 04 S60R 6 speed, we also have an 04 V70 2.4 which we’ve had since new and my mom has a 2018 XC90. All of which are great cars. Love the Volvo content! Hopefully you get another 850, S60, or whatever in the future. I wish you lived closer to Seattle so my R could be reviewed. Anyways love the content.
My mom had a first gen xc90. Rode to school in that. Fun features in it like the built in booster seat. Turbo I5. My mom let me shift the transmission in the passenger seat. Solid car. Cars from the early 2000s are just great. Maybe it’s nostalgia but I think that generation of automobile is my favorite.
just thinking about a car from 20 years ago having such great quality leather and still runs with barely any rust to me is better than anything else i could buy.
My first car in 2010 was a 04 s60 2.5t. I miss that car everyday, nothing like a Volvo. When he was talkin how smooth opening the doors were. I felt that so much haha
I really like this generation of volvos with subtle styling,safety and good to drive also very clean car man, congratulations to your mom to keeping this car on the road
Crazy how the seats seem to be in such good shape, here in sweden alot of these old Volvos with leather seats have rips or cracks everywhere. The person who buys will be one happy person lol
Almost literally my Volvo-Same exterior color, but a 2001 auto with charcoal interior (an even less common color combo, seemingly). She's nearing 308K miles, and I had her for over 11 years, now (as of commenting). Named her after Jody Summer from F-Zero. These naturally-aspirated, 5-cylinder Volvos are criminally underrated. 🦾
I've owned a facelifted 2008 S60 2.4 5 cylinder, 5-speed manual, 170hp, Atacama Grey exterior with tan full leather interior just like in the video. It was a mighty car that, felt like a solid tank. The engine note and the doors/hood closing sound is all I needed to know.
Nice! I had a 2002 S-60T Auto (Black on Tan). It actually was a great ! Pricey to maintain, but it never let me down. One of the safest cars out there, plus those seats...I could do1 0 hr trips. That open cubby in the center of the dash used to drive me crazy so I bought the optional factory cupholder that goes in there. The only complaint I ever had was the turning radius was horrible... Drove it to 105k and sole it for a decent chuck on change. Enjoy and hope it goes to a nice home!
BEAUTIFUL! I would just say "Mom, can I have the S60? if I get 600k subscribers?" 😁 I inherited my sister's 2010 S40 2.4i. I love it love it! This will be interesting to watch. Volvo for life!
I owned newer cars, about 5 of them and this S60 i used as a beater meanwhile, he outlived all of them, never had any giant problems and im still using it to this day. 2.4 non turbo 2003 model. I rather put like 600 bucks into him like every 2 years and drive stress free than to pay 20k for newer cars.
Good luck with sale! I just picked up recording devices to start making POV videos of my own, I just wanted to tell you that you guys and Tedward have really inspired me.
I love that this car was configured with a naturally aspirated engine and a manual transmission. It should provide many, many more miles of motoring. (Bonus of that era: no infotainment BS!!!). Overall a very nice car that appears to be in very nice condition. I hope that the next owner enjoys this car and takes good care of it like your mom has.
20:04 that little slot you guys were talking about is actually for the pop out drink holder found in the S60 in other regions. Search it up, it's a quirky little thing that folds out quite nicely :)
I learned to drive on a '05 automatic FWD. Mine was almost identical but in white. Mine finally went off to the scrap yard when I got a new WRX this past February. It's a shame these cars aren't worth the maintenance costs because they're such nice cars.
I got one, 2006 with a D5 163hp + 6spd spaceball manual. Rigid ass car, happy to rev, no weird noises, little to no rust, seats are phenomenal, audio system is above average to today's offerings. I believe the clutch also hasn't ever been replaced lmao
I just got a 2012 Volvo S60 T5 in march and I love it so much. It is actually my first car. It is really nice. It's fast, has really nice features especially for a 2012 and it just is an amazing first car. I am so glad to have it, but Im really just glad to have a car in general now. I would recommend buying one if you are interested it is definitely worth it. Volvo's are very nice and luxurious cars even older models like my 2012. They were way ahead of their time back then.
@@levonyoung3749 they are not very good, they are comparable to the GM 4T65 in the automatic P2’s with the Modular 6, but even less worse.. They are so not good that Ford has been sued over them.
I've got 2005 V70, which is same car but wagon. Handed down by my parents. Love it. I've had very same thoughts as you guy throughout the video. Biggest gripe is it's automatic and it pains me terribly. I never stop thinking about switching it for a manual.
That S60 is gorgeous. Love that it’s a 5 cylinder & manual. My mom still has her 2003 Volvo XC70 2.5T with 285k mi and it works great. I’ve been trying for years to get her to sell it to me lol.
These Volvos are definitely not the most exciting sedans on the planet, but theyre just really, really *nice*. I would absolutely love to daily drive one of these.
We have almost the exact same family car history. We had a white 240 sedan when I was born, dad replaced that with a white 850 sedan, then a dark blue V70 which is the station wagon version of this S60. Then another V70, the last model. You can feel how the 850 was the basis for Volvo for the next decade. The V70s drove exactly the same way as the 850.
Nice review. We had similar childhood rides. Got driven to school in a 240, 850, xc70. Just drove the xc70 in over ten years and can’t believe how heavy the steering was
The clutch on these old P2 volvos are suprisingly strong. I bought an old S80 from 1999 that had roughly 31k KM on it. had to tow it since the brakes didnt work. Only thing was that the clutch couldnt disengage FULLY for some reason. However we didnt notice that. So after about 8km of towing we finally made it home, opened the hood, and holy shit there was clutch smoke everywhere. We believed the first new thing we needed was a clutch. However its still holding up after another 3,5k km since we got it, INCLUDING several hundred burnouts. Just had to rev a bit and dump the clutch and it would spin pretty good on the road, also the same engine as this one, 2.4l 140hp.
If you're interested in buying one of these but you're unsure of the interior, don't worry! They come in many different variants. I have the black / gray interior with a better looking stock shifter and I love it.
I drive an 05 S60 R! Lots of issues but I love my baby. Don't have the money for this (as you would expect lol) but shared it to some other Volvo guys who might be interested!
I found older cars wayyy better than current modern cars. The new fancy features are kinda getting in your face. In older cars, stuff are there because I need it.
My first car was a red SAAB 9-5 Aero with the 5 speed manual. Worked for a Volvo dealership so I've been in my fair share of manual Volvos and now I daily a '99 S70 T5. It's rare to find a manual S60 non-R.
Your brother is not wrong. There were quite a few Volvos in the US with leather without heated seats. My 08 S80 happens to be one and a very very rare spec. It was Volvo’s flagship car without heated seats.
my mom’s base model 04 v70 has leather and a sunroof, but no heated seats, and my dad’s 09 s80 3.2 doesn’t have them either. but we live in california so it’s not a big deal
@@kylemontano228 same here not a big deal, I live in AZ. I have a huge emotional attachment to the car, it saved my life in a rear end accident. My S80 is a 3.2 as well in Ice White and I take meticulous care of it. Insurance fixed it. Keeping that car forever, and it has a brand new $8000 transmission from Volvo Cars Scottsdale. No reason to sell it ever. These Aisin transmission were weak.. I think it probably got injured in the accident, just like me. My mom also bought a 2017 XC60 T5 inscription. However, she prefers driving my S80, she loves the power of 3.2. I like the XC60 though because it’s high up.
PLEEEEAASE do the usual 70mph MPG loop and a sound system test!! Lets see how far we've come along in two decades!....Is this car better than a new Versa?
My first car! (Mine was auto, a bit jealous) Same thing with the gauge cluster, vibrations crack the solder joints so you can usually just heat them up and reflow if you dabble in soldering irons haha
Ur mom let u drive her car? Hell would freeze over before my mom let me drive her car and I’ve been driving everyday for 11 years at this point. It’s really something special if ur mom trust u that much 😊
I don’t have time to watch the video right now so I hope I’ll find it again later, but I have to say I test drove a 5 speed S60 20 years or so ago before I ended up buying a Civic. I was impressed at the time that I could find one of these for only about $22k. It had cloth seats and was quite pleasant to drive. I also tested a manual S40. I’m looking forward to watching this later. Nowadays Volvo tries too hard to impress everybody.
My dad had a 2001 Volvo s60 2.4 diesel and sold it with 200.000-250.000 and it never had problems and always runt good and my dad took really good car of it and we loved it I have great memories with that car we had it for 9 years and and it had around 190hp but we never knew why because standard it has like 160-170hp my dad thought it was tuned from the factory I think it maybe had a ecu tune
Man, I really want this car. It will be my first car if I can buy one used here in Indonesia. Hopefully soon. Love to hear the thunk when the door closed just like you said! Might be get an automatic, but it's still better than the low cost green car option in Indonesia here

I remember seeing this car all over my neighborhood during the 2000s 😂 a cult classic for moms everywhere
Volvo has always been the classiest everday car on the market.
God the classic 5 cylinder sound never gets old. You should do an update video on your old 850 R! The P2 T5 turbo 5 speeds are a joy to drive

Nice review. We had similar childhood rides. Got driven to school in a 240, 850, xc70. Just drove the xc70 in over ten years and can’t believe how heavy the steering was
I had a manual 2002 S60 T5 manual with the sport package and loved that car, it was pretty quick too!
Loved the video! Gonna buy one of these soon and this video gave me a great impression of the car! Thanks guys!
My favorite Volvo engine is this 5 cylinder, it sounds heavenly.
Pretty rare car. Don't remember the last time I saw a non T5/R P2 manual, let alone no sunroof.
What a wonderful little car. Hats off to your mother.
I had one of those. A green one. I used it to drive to work during Winter. One of the fastest cars I've owned.

inline 5s are amazing. my 2004 xc90 sounds amazing, you can even hear the turbo wheeze and whirl when you put it down
I was never a fan of Volvo until I drove one, same goes for the new Chrysler Pacificas
This is a rare car because it's a fast car
Great condition for such an old car! 🤩
I found older cars wayyy better than current modern cars. The new fancy features are kinda getting in your face. In older cars, stuff are there because I need it.
My first car was a red SAAB 9-5 Aero with the 5 speed manual. Worked for a Volvo dealership so I've been in my fair share of manual Volvos and now I daily a '99 S70 T5. It's rare to find a manual S60 non-R.
Just picked up the same car, 5 Speed Slicktop, except 2003, black/greycloth, and a V70. They just don't rust! Gets great mileage and is fun!
Aftermarket wheels reminded me the one on the Saab 9-3. The tray by the radio is like the optional phone keypad, if I recall right.
I used to drive a S40 2.4 for a while back in the day. It wasn’t fast, but I did really like the character of the engine.
Your mom is a badass for driving that!
in the US Ive only ever seen one manual non-R S60, tried to buy it to learn manual with but it sold too quick :(
Omg I’ve owned one of these for years and never known about the cup holders at 2:20, so cool

I’m looking forward to watching this later. Nowadays Volvo tries too hard to impress everybody.
Man if this was in California I'd be seriously tempted to pick this up. Looks and sounds really cool
Be sure to get the recalls done!
Bro you got me scared when you turned your head I was like damn
My dad had a 2001 Volvo s60 2.4 diesel and sold it with 200.000-250.000 and it never had problems and always runt good and my dad took really good car of it and we loved it I have great memories with that car we had it for 9 years and and it had around 190hp but we never knew why because standard it has like 160-170hp my dad thought it was tuned from the factory I think it maybe had a ecu tune
That's awesome your mom drives a manual Volvo!
I miss my 02 s60 it was a solid car.
Man, I really want this car. It will be my first car if I can buy one used here in Indonesia. Hopefully soon. Love to hear the thunk when the door closed just like you said!
Might be get an automatic, but it's still better than the low cost green car option in Indonesia here
