2008 Volvo S60

Trim: Sport
by purewilpoer on 11-13-2017
Classy and elegant
This car is really good-looking and oozes confidence. I like the interior design and the performance of the engine. The only downside I see is the cost of the parts and the amount of fuel used.

Best car I owned
This is the best car I owned. The amount of luxury for the price is incredible. Volvos are built like tanks and I never had any issue with this car. I would highly recommend this car to my family and friends. The only downside is the fuel economy.

suprized by volvo s60 performance and fuel economy

good styling and comfortable car. Sleeper performance with the 2.3l 5 cylinder turbo motor.

Awesome leather seats I think the best I have ever sat in. I have good in many road trips with the car and always impressed.

I drive 75 km each way to work and car does that easily. I have put 100000 km in last 2years.

Bad thing, volvos depreciate in price very fast but the parts always stay extremely expensive and very hard to find

Got its pros & cons
I have been driving this car for nearly 15 years now. Overall I am pretty happy with it. Unfortunately though reading a lot of forums online, there seem to be a common issue that the "electricals" don't work so well on the vehicle. Lights will burn out faster than they normally do, powered windows may sometimes stop responding, AC may crap out. And I"ve had some issue with the transmission where I had to do a few repair on it. Fuel economy is not bad, but European cars are never really known for that aspect. So those are the down sides...

Upside is that the car is super safe. A few times I got into minor accidents or when I got hit, the car barely had any dents in it while the other vehicle suffers a lot more damage than my s60 did. And the styling of the car I must say is still pretty descent even in today's standard!

Very safe and reliable with very good gas mileage
This car has been very reliable. The ride is still excellent and there is not a rattle in it. The gas mileage is very good and it has lots of power. We are selling it because we need a larger vehicle for winter travel to the U.S.

Safe, reliable and distinct vehicle
It is the 4th used Volvo I own. By far the most reliable and safe from all the vehicles I owned so far.

I hope to buy a new one one day and keep it for many years. However, new they are quite pricey for what I am willing to spend for a vehicle at this point.

I purchased this car as a daily commute to school. It isn't the best on gas, but probably the best car for reliability. It doesn't seem to amuse me any day. The Volvo will exceed your expectations in every way possible.

It has all of the options available on the market today
This vehicle rides beautifully, handles like a sports car, lots of pep, has adaptive cruise so once on it modulates itself to the speed of the traffic, it senses barriers like people in front and automatically stops, navigation is speech enabled and parking is made so much easier with front sensors and rear sensors/camera.

The Most comfortable and Safe Vehicle
Have been owing an driving Volvo, nothing can be replaced. The co,fort level, vision, handling are second to none. For example, at one time, I needed to avoid an suitation and had to swivel the steering wheel, Volvo did not had any boy roll at all. Furthermore, the Volvo is using regular fuel unlike other European, they have to take premium fuel.

Fantastic, sporty involved ride
This car has been very reliable. It's been well maintained in every aspect. It's not been the primary vehicle, thus the very low kms. It's parked inside a garage when not in use, therefore, the interior and exterior is in great condition. Used very little commuting passengers, and this is reflected in the over all shape inside and out.

Most comfortable, safest and most reliable vehicle I have owned
Volvo is renown for producing cars to match a Canadian climate, with all wheel drive, heated seats, low center of gravity and good visibility. Add to that are the most comfortable seats available, allowing for hours of relaxing driving, good heating and cooling - front seat and back.

2006 Volvo S60

Trim: S60 R
by 4salebyowner on 01-26-2014
Volvo S60R perfected
The Volvo S60R is a beautiful, comfortable and refined all-wheel drive sports saloon. With some very affordable tune and exhaust improvements from the aftermarket she will easily manhandle her V8 competitors while remaining understated and fuel efficient.

The inline 5 exhaust can sing like a V10 with the proper pipes and the power potential of this mill is well documented in Europe.

Forget the BMW's and Audi's, the Volvo is everything and more without the "look at me" attitude.

Pleasure to drive and a true Wolf in Sheeps clothing.

Best Car I've Ever Driven!!!
Loved driving the S60! Turbo really makes a difference for highway driving. Heated seats has been wonderful on my back and on cold days. Having traction control and W feature helps driving in not so great weather conditions. Nice to have the option of manual with an automatic. Overall, best car I've ever driven!

Good, solid car.
Volvo's are good, solid cars. Period. They also have the most comfortable seats of any car out there. Anyone who doesn't know this has never driven one.

The 2004 S60 has great exterior styling, nice European interior styling and the T5 trim level has all the nice features while providing more than enough power and excellent fuel economy.

Great Hwy Cruiser
I had my S60 for just over 4 months and put on approx 5000 km, mostly hwy driving. The vehicle is great on the hwy, very quiet and comfortable, with great handling/driving characteristics. Mileage is also pretty good , especially if kept under 120 kmph. I drive the Coquihalla Hwy (BC) a lot where the speed is 110 kmph. Passing power is smooth and powerful from around 80-120 kmph, and beyond.

My S60 is fully loaded so it has a lot of the safety features such as blis, lane departure warning, auto cruise etc. These are a nice bonus so I always have these features turned on. Has the comfort, sport, and advanced mode settings, but I always leave mine in comfort as it addresses my hwy and city driving needs.

The only minor drawback I noticed with my Volvo is that the turning radius is not that great.

If you're in the market for a vehicle in this segment you would be remiss is you did not take the S60 out for a spin. It will impress you. So far I am very pleased with my S60
