Common S80 problems to be aware of S80

Wow, I admit I really love the design of the S80, I've driven both turbo and non-turbo models and found it to be a very enjoyable experience that I could live with for a long time.....but after this thread and all the "Consumer Reports" type warnings I'm wondering if Volvo made this car as a wonderful piece of Driveway Art to be admired but don't dare drive it!!

I put 250K on my '75 turbo diesel 745 and now have 220K on my turbo 945 (which I've begun to completely revamp with an excellent 965 interior swap)

It's been in one accident (idiot didn't even try to stop at the red light/RR tracks and plowed into my rear!!) and fully repaired/repainted..(6 yrs ago) and now I'm going after it again for a total rework!

Definately the Devil you know....
