Incredible Value

I've owned my S60 for 3 years and have had minimal issues. The ride quality is outstanding, and Volvo did an excellent job with the styling on this car. I've received several thumbs ups and head nods, and even occasional "how much for it?"s. If you can find one for a good price, go for it!

Volvo for life

I love my Volvo I haven't ever had an issue with it. I plan on upgrading to an SUV from the S60. It's quick and fun and durable for getting out to the mountains. I love the smooth ride and how the DVD players come with head phones to keep each child quiet lol.

Safest car I've ever owned!

This is my 2nd Volvo S60 (I would still have my first one if my husband hadn't totaled it! :)) My first one was a 2001, the very first year they made the S60. I think this is a great luxury car for the money. Very reliable and cost efficient compared to other high-end vehicles; however, as with any vehicle, maintenance is the key.
