@op i will commend u for thinking of getting a Volvo and i will advise base on experience. Volvo is a nice and solid car on its own, It has some nice interior, solid engine that can stand the test of time if manage appropriately and the electronic is superb. All cars have their own shortcoming and volvo is not an exemption. You need to first enquire if u can get a competent volvo mechanic in ur area, if not, that might be ur first problem. When i bought my s80 in 2012 which happen to be my first car the mechanic i was using knew little or nothing about volvo and that almost ruin the car until i had to give my self some brain. As for the parts i can assure u that volvo parts are some of the cheapest only problem is that u have to get to Daleko market to buy even an ordinary volvo fan belt. U can be rest assured that no thieves will ne after u to steal ur Volvo even if u forget to lock it at nightv only u shouldnt make this an habbit. Ask around how much thay sell engine of most common cars and compare it to a volvo and there u will see a glaring difference. When u are taking ur car to the mechanic, always stay with ur car. Cultivatethis habbit and thank me later. Lastly because a car arent common dosent mean it arent better than the rest. Just like some said volvo recommendd castro oil, thats true but i use mobil super 1000 as i cant lay my hands on castro. Treat ur volvo well & it will last u.

Nb: am still rocking my volvo s80

Glad to hear you're still rocking your S80. The S80 is one helluva vehicle. However, I'd like to know which mechanic you use for your repairs? I'm in dire need of one right now.
