Review 2 of 3

Price Paid:  $0.00 from Secor Volvo

Year / Model Reviewed:
2004 S80

Summary:
Traded in my V70AWD 2001 for a 2004 S80Took it back after 53 miles because of a transmission whistle. Dealer was upfront and said they whistle sometimes at various speeds. Liked the car, nice ride, perfect workmanship. Small side mirrors. Great looking quality car. But I went back to a 2004 V70 AWD Wagon.

Strengths:
The strength in this case was the response from the dealership. We had a sit down meeting with sales manager, repair manager salesman and customer. We were treated with respect, given a loaner and the next day had a new 2004 V70 AWD, free mats and even a small refund. Top notch dealer and that counts a lot. This is my second V70AWD...love the car. Going to stick with it and check in on the sedan in about three years. Safety-safety-safety. That is a real big strength with Volvo.

Weaknesses:
Side mirrors a bit small. Can't see radio display in daylight. I hate all cup holders. Not much of a negative list when you get down to it.

Similar Products Used:
Had Saabs and Volvos since 1975. If Saab had a AWD sedan I would check it out.

Review 3 of 3

Price Paid:  $39000.00 from Borton Volvo

Year / Model Reviewed:
2004 S-80

Summary:
This on a 2004 S80: beautiful, very nice car. Dealer delivered a perfect car as they should have. Did NOT get: Turbo, AWD or "Dynamic" traction control. Mechanic mentioned that I avoided several potential trouble spots. Quite adequate acceleration, if you want more, drop into third. I will put Blizzaks on it for winter driving, In Minneapolis I do not need AWD.

Strengths:
Looks, quality (I hope!) Excellent sound system.

Weaknesses:
Steering boost is too high-- needs more road feel. Impractical car key-sounds trivial but not. No external trunk lock. My BMW was not trouble free by any means.
