Are 2005 S80 2.5t basically the same as S60? Topic is solved

I'm shopping for cars with a friend, came across a 2005 S80 2.5t, 145,000 miles.

Since there seems to be a lot more information for s60/v70 than S80, I wonder if this model is basically mechanically the same as the P2 s60, v70s, with 2.5t inline-5 and Aisin 5 speed?
Or are there issues specific to those models.

I personally drive a 2004 xc70, wonder if my experiences can apply to this 2005 S80 2.5t.

Yes they are similar, especially the engine and driveline. I have been tempted a few times when I have seen a 2.5T with AWD for sale.

Thanks, I mostly want to make sure they have the aisin 5 speed instead of the 4 speed transmission.
