The 2000 Volvo S80: before you buy
No 2000 Volvo S80 is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. 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
NHTSA has 318 owner complaints on file, mostly about vehicle speed control, engine and engine cooling and electrical system. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. There are 4 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package.
Under the hood
The engine is the 2.9L 6-cylinder, with front-wheel drive and a 4-speed automatic. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
Expect about 37 litres for every 300 km, going by its 12.4 L/100 km combined rating. In money, 1,000 km costs about $217 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$4,350 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
Is it right for your trip?
It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.
How big it is
It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with. EPA lists 425 litres of luggage space, enough for a family's bags for a long weekend.
Try before you buy
Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. Rent the S80 for a week and see how it fits your life.
Which one to look for
A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. Within the 2000 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which.
What it costs to run
The EPA estimates US$4,350 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Premium gas adds to the running cost compared with a car on regular. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $217 at our price setting.
