Wilvo S80 test drive since 2011 sedan

Volvo S80 2.5T

Six months of long -term operation of the new Volvo S80 behind. During this time, the car under our leadership ran 12,500 km. It is enough to completely get comfortable with the car.
 

Please note that in ten days the power of attorney ends! This phrase of the Okho -Strand Oterar after the next verification of documents was as a verdict.

How so? Really those six months that the new S80 had to spend on our long test have already expired? Indeed, you get used to the good quickly.
 

But it all ends someday. Our half -year coexistence with this machine ended. Are we satisfied with it? Rather yes than no. Of course, there were no surprises that we wrote about. But basically eighty -year -olds only pleased us.
 

Already at the end of the test on the instrument panel, an icon was blurred, warning that the fifteen thousand is not far off. By the way, for today the Volvo S80 interior mileage has been increased to 20? 000 mileage, and the 2008 model year is already underway with such an interval. As, however, our car is in the future. Its computer is reprogrammed, and once again the future owner will turn to the service when a run of 35? 000.
 

Lucky, in a word. Today today it costs about 10,000 rubles. It is not so ruined, given that the car itself is far over a million. But he really stands.
