My vehicle is a black 2002 Volvo S80. Not only is it a very safe and reliable car, but also it gets good gas mileage and never seems to break down. The car is clearly made by engineers who know what they are doing. The only thing that I dislike about the car is the cup holder in in the front is very flimsy and breaks on most Volvo s80's.

My Volvo S80, lovingly named Sadie by our family, is fun to drive, gets great mileage and has a lot of spunk. We purchased this car for my husband, but it wasn't long before I took it over. We now have two teen drivers who prefer to drive it also. This means another Volvo is on the horizon!

This has been a wonderfully-comfortable vehicle which makes me feel safe while driving. I previously had a 2.5T version on an older model S80 and was really hesitant when Volvo discontinued that engine and introduced the 3.2 and T6. -The 3.2 I test drove didn't have the same oomph as the T6, which was the engine I fell in love with. I've always loved the quality of leather utilized in the vehicle, and the wood grain accents are a step up from my older model S80 trim. I wish this engine had better gas mileage. That's one spot I feel Volvo could have tweaked a bit. Newer model years have better mileage with the same engine. Safety is a big sell for me and I feel Volvo has always surpassed this category more than any other vehicle manufacturer. I went with the BLIS option on this vehicle, and that is a tremendous thing to have when cruising on the highway. This has become a standard in many cars now, but Volvo was ahead of the curve on this feature. It's been a great vehicle as well during the New England winters. It was always able to handle well in the snow. I wish there was a little more thought put into the interior, but it serves its purpose. I have always admired the simplicity of the layout on the center console. It is easy to navigate without being distracting.
