Volvo Repair: 1999 Volvo S80 T6, volvo s80, 1999 volvo s80


Question
I am thinking of buying this car for my daughter who is in college.  It has 109612 miles, runs great but I am wondering if the maintenance costs will be worth it?  I'm not sure if the timing belt has been changed; what will it cost and should other items be changed at the same time?

Answer
John, do yourself a favor and stay away from this car.  you will have nothing but headaches.  Its the worse year for the S80 and you will spend Tons of money on stupid stuff.  Find a nice S70 or 850.  You will thank me for this. Timing belt should have been done at 105k service. Roger
