Good design, poor engine
At 65000 miles engine died. Car was faithfully service by Volvo dealer. Cost of repairs $17K plus $1700 in diagnostic work. So far no help from anyone....dealer nor Volvo. What's up with this?

Favorite car I've owned - T6 AWD R-Design
I bought this car fairly loaded with BLIS, heated seats, navigation, etc. and it has treated be very well. I love the feeling of the car and how well designed it is. One thing that can be a little annoying is the placement of the main control nob for the center screen. The R-Design seats are comfortable but not firm as you might expect with sport seats. The car drives well too, it's quick and willing to go down any curvy road with confidence (especially when you change the steering response settings). The one thing I was a little confused about was with the spare tire that was in a bag taking up space in the trunk, not under the floor. I love the car and plan to keep it for as long as I can. I've had 4 BMW's, Volkswagen's, Audi's, an Isuzu Trooper and I must say that I've never been quite so happy with a purchase before like this.

Volvo stands behind their cars
This is my second S60. The best thing about Volvo is that they stand behind the car. I have bought certified used twice and have been very happy with the way the warranty has worked. If there's an issue, they fix it. This car is better suited for a person who is smaller, my husband is 6'2 and it's a tight fit, not roomy enough for him.

This car is awesome
Bought the 2012 S60 T6 with 128,000 miles. It drives like it's fairly new. Much quicker than the 2005 S60 Manual. Handling is pretty similar. Love the style. One problem I find is that it is difficult to get into the vehicle, without brushing real hard against the rubber trim and the side casing that covers the seatbelt and side airbag. I'm almost 6ft, 210, and I popped the casing away from the rubber within a couple weeks of owning the vehicle. I never had that problem with the '05. It seems to run heavy when I am driving under 25 mph, but when I'm on the highway, this car is sweet.

Excellent calue
2012 S60 T5, white exterior with tan interior, purchased used at 96,000 miles. Drives like new. When looking for used cars, one does need to drive each car. I found many S60's with much lower mileage but in much poorer condition. The car drives great. I average 32mpg with relatively cautious driving. It would be higher if not for the occasional burst of spirited driving on back roads. My previous cars have included BMW 325i, BMW 325iT, Chevrolet Cruze. The S60 does not have the same steering feel as these cars, but once you get used to it, it is a great drive. The seats are supremely comfortable (sorry Cruze), the engine has a tangible feeling of having power, the car stays planted on the road, it does not isolate you but involves you, is a very CALM place to be, and the car grows on you. A couple of cautions: one would be that trim pieces may come loose. I have loose trim on the outside of the front windshield and the door, and both can be easily and inexpensively replaced. Another caution would be the dealership. Please purchase from a dealer who takes care of cars - all dealers are not equal. Mine was from Laurel BMW in Westmont, IL., and I highly recommend them. Don't restrict yoursekf to Volvo dealers. Getting the right dealership will make a difference. So, in summary, great car (drive them all and be choosy), and good dealer (visit them all and be choosy).
