1999 Volvo S80 T6 review from North America
"A real treasure to drive on a long road trip"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Transmission @ 6,000; replaced promptly.
Ball joints replaced; recall.
Intermittent emission light; still have not addressed this one.
General comments?
Although I have had some problems with the car, overall I am enjoying it.
It is very quick and handles fairly well for something this large.
The seats are off the chart! Amazing.
All service issues were handled with extreme professionalism.
