I just wanted to say Hi to all the fellow Volvo owners. I am new to the Volvo family, and I have been looking for ways & ideas to enhance my car. I just bought a 2000 Volvo S80 T6 for $9900.00. It has about 70,000 miles on it, and was a trade-in at the Lexus dealership that I work at. The car runs smooth... and I enjoy it very much. I'm aware of some kind of oil leak near or on the turbo line... a bracket of some sort.. going to cost me $500.00 to have it fixed... other than that... I just had all brake pads replaced.. semi-synthetic oil put in... and I'm in the market for new tires... Hopefully this car will last me.

Looks really good. Did you have a mechanic at your dealership check it out?

yep.. needed brakes, tires, and had a small leak by the turbo.. said he thought it was worth it.. just that it would be expensive to fix

Xactly true. Volvo's are fast, comfortable and very safe. But they're not "transportation appliances" like Japanese cars are. They do require a bit more TLC and the parts are more expensive. Nothing extreme in most cases, just a bit more.

How often should I use "Manual" mode, or should I even use it at all??

Manual shift mode?

Is $9,900 a good price for this car?
