Buy the accord. It’s cheaper to buy and maintain. Buy extra ball joint and throw in your boot, keep 2k for mecho anytime you hear pim from your suspension.

S60 is a more luxurious car but It’s not in every mechanic garage you see a Volvo specialist.

The so called toy sold more units than S40 +S60+S80+XC90 units combined together. the Volvo should be dragging spot with Seat, Subaru, skoda definitely not an Accord.

More sales doesn't equal better quality and drive.

Honda is crap. Nigerians are buying it because majority know nothing about cars and want to show off.

Go back to what OP asked. Volvo has more luxury, rugged and can withstand high level of abuse that you can never try with Accord.

Besides their tokunbo engines are cheap incase you are the careless type.

What else can man ask for

The first and most important thing in car sales is quantity, forget all that quality crap luxury cars preach. if you are not able to meet up with certain tresh-holds in car sales you are gone.

Honda is not crap and as a company they have stood the test of time, Honda engineering is not mate of Volvo, when it was swedish, when it was under Ford and finally when it was under Chinese. your Honda is crap statement is blasphemy.

Your Volvo doesn't have more luxury than honda, S60 has cloth option, navigation is optional, no massage seat nor fridge, I don't know what luxury the S60 carry from heaven to earth that the Accord EX-L isn't fitted with, you can enlighten me I wish to learn.

In the first place you aren't supposed to abuse a vehicle. Anyway your S60 won't take Abuse more than an Accord. The accord has a bullet proof engine, the leg works are solid shocks, spring, bushings etc and the shaft gives signs before it gives way. the only negative thing about accords is just the shaft and you should be only worried if you buy Chinese knockoffs.

The first ever accord was made in 1976 while Volvo S60 started in 1999 that's 23years difference. Respect your elder as a Volvo user, the Accord is not mate of Very Odd Looking Unidentifiable Vehicular Object (VOLUVO)

Am also interested in the bolded, what is the "luxury" in a 1st gen S60...
Ruby360 & Valarinz care to share?

Ruggedness: Both cars are not the most rugged cars, if roads to your area are not good you go change bushings tire on both and remember Honda "leg pull"


Fuel economy: Accord

Availability of parts: Accord, Honda parts are everywhere while for volvo you always have to go to specific market(eg daleko) for parts but Honda would have more fake parts

Cheap parts: S60 depending on how honest your mechanic is
Price: S60 should be cheaper to buy for both toks & naija used

I will personally take the Volvo S60 not because it is a better car but because I am adventurous like that grin

Hit me up when you have a buyer for my Volvo

Below was my response before the grammar started, and it remains same.

valarinz:

You and nurey should do same too cos una bias pass my own, nothing u guys type here can be devoid of emotions, some will even say rubbish about Volvo in a bid to draw me out or hurt me.

After all this your long epistle. Nothing changes the fact that Honda accord leg pulls, their gearbox is a nightmare while their engine doesn't stand a taste of time like Volvo.

Go and watch the video on YouTube where the S60 was tested by Top Gear. The performance was top notch!

My brother nothing can change the fact that Sweden's make strong and luxury products.

Relax bro, the op has already made up his mind.

Also stop replying that man, he fears volvo will take over his means of livelihood to the point he uses all his venom to try and bring Volvo cars down at every slight opportunity.

Last year, I told them not to fight the future, Volvo is taking over their lost place on the streets of Nigeria. Gradually, its happening, and also faster than I even anticipated.

With time, all them kazeem will stop condemning and fall in place too. They're only afraid of losing clients.

To all ye running scared, no point fighting the inevitable, enroll in some Volvo repair and diagnosis training course instead.

Good luck

Your Volvo chairman has started shading me just because I told the truth.

No matter how bad you paint the accord, data sheet don't lie, the accord is a better car than the Volvo S60 whether you like it or not.
