Please stay away from the S80 T6, it was a test mule for electronics that failed miserably.
"older" Volvos, pre-1999, are OK. What is nice about Volvos unlike BMW/AUDI, Volvos can be maintained in the driveway, for the most part. If you have to go to a dealer or mechanic for simple repairs/maintenance, it will be expensive.

Look for a reasonable 850(not 1993) or S70 in your area. Then let us look at the URL for that particular car and we can provide a bunch of questions to ask the seller.
