The 2000 Volvo S80: before you buy

CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2000 Volvo S80; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. This page puts the 2000 Volvo S80 in plain words for buyers: what it uses, what to check, and how to try one first.

Recalls and complaints

Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered.

The figures, translated

The powertrain to know here is the 2.9L 6-cylinder, with front-wheel drive. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

At 12.4 L/100 km combined, a 300 km drive takes roughly 37 litres of fuel. Per 100 km, plan on roughly $21.70. The EPA estimates US$4,350 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

Living with the S80

Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk. EPA lists 425 litres of luggage space, enough for a family's bags for a long weekend.

Is it right for your trip?

It suits commuters, couples and business trips. It uses more fuel than most, so it suits shorter trips or people who need its size.

Try before you buy

Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. Rent first, buy later: a week with the S80 answers the big questions. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel.

The cost of driving it

At our price setting, 100 km costs about $21.70 in fuel. The EPA estimates US$4,350 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $217 at our price setting.

Picking a year and a trim

Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires.
