@ Honestly, my dad had a Volvo that he bought new after graduating from college. I’m not sure what the model was, but it was something from the mid 60s. And that thing was nothing but trouble from the day he bought it to the day he got rid of it. Days after he bought it, an oil seal in the rear end that went bad, causing the rear end to eat itself. He was making a cross country trip at the time, and had to stay for DAYS in a hotel while a new rear end was shipped in. Of course, that wasn’t the end. Other problems included plastic timing gears that deteriorated and premature failure of the exhaust system. In any case, the Japanese may have borrowed tech from many other places. But the one thing they REALLY going for them is quality control and just designing something to last. And in this department, they are LIGHT YEARS ahead of Volvo.
Not really, its quite reliable owing to engine being built in Japan. People in Europe & USA average around 300k Miles on the car before needing major maintenance. Parts are available plenty in UK, USA which can be ordered online & imported to India but are generally cheaper in cost than BMW, Merc or Audi.
3 years in at 160,000 miles and I bought it when it had 136,000 miles, and I've only had the usual maintenance repairs needed for a car that's 17 years old. I haven't been light on the pedal with it either, still a hell of a highway puller for it's weight. The AWD system will chew through front tires nearly annually though, I swear. Hasn't been any more or less of a hassle than most other modern used cars I've had.
My s80 v8 is at 251,xxx it’s leaking form the valve covers coolant hoses leak suspension is shot power steering return hose ruptured but it still runs and shifts perfect, she’s my project car but she still drives like it has 100,000 plenty power and life yet
KIAS and Hyundai's are willing to rev redline not to get beat by a 6,000 lb xc90 v8 out of the hole. worth a few chuckles at the fuel pump ,.... The tail gate on the xc90 with door for rain block is nice at picnics. Built for life....VOLVO ....
Solid in Desgin, power-packed in performance and luxury in Drive. These V8 models are gem! Keep them safe and maintened in new Forever❤
I have one I purchased last year. Added Becker Performance exhaust and wider tires and K & N air filter.
When Volvos were enthusiastic. These Volvos are the ultimate sleepers as the tailgate BMWs in Nurburgring.
You mean b4 they were ☭🇨🇳 billionaire oligarch Geely (that will always be weird oxymoron).
old Volvos are the OGs, especially this S80 V8
You know what og means right
The S-80 V-8 is a beautiful automobile, Volvo for life.
Thanks for shooting this rare car.
Yamaha is a good friend of Toyota too, remember the Lexus LFA ?
Also the 2JZ 👀
@@Ab-kj1fu that was a fully Toyota developed engine.
Ford SHO Taurus was Yamaha V6.
@@unowen-nh9ov That was the first generation SHO. The second generation SHO had a 60 degree V8.
@@MucozimeYamaha helped with valves I believe
The LIZARD at 5:48 😂
I have one and I love it.
I just bought a 2010 S80 V8 Executive with 34k miles
WOW
I hope the AWD is still working after the dyno..
This isn’t the only car with a 60 degree V8. The Ford Taurus SHO, which featured a Yamaha V8, also had a 60 degree V8.
Literally says this in the video
Back when volvo weren't "eco friendly"
What about now?
@@Supermonkey980 Ev crap because chinese dont know how to make engines. So this whole green crap narrative is being spread
Volvo always tried to be eco friendly. They marketed the low emissions of this V8 as much as the power.
Got a punto evo 2015. What's the best first mod?
Selling it.
@@hexagonosaurus5848 why

Why doesn't the dyno graph cross at 5250
Becuase it crossed at 4850 instead? What kinda goofy ass question
feature the 8th gen V6 accord.
👍🏻
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Hp in engine how many?
315 по заводу
311-325 depending on the country I have the 311 horsepower
3900 rpm is the beginning of the power
Any body own volvo s80 2.5
2011 and 1/2 for the V8
6:20 😋😋
The V8 ended in 2011 and 1/2
Level 10 transmissions makes a better trans for this car if anyone is looking...
For the whopping 300hp 😂😂
@@hexagonosaurus5848 Have you ever heard of modifications to a car? Some of us boosting our s80s
5:30 - 6:50 only good part of this video.
Very Nice video! I have a 2007 V8 lime this one in Brazil and made a video with details, pretty good condition! Check it out alter! ;-)
the engine ghroul
If i had the money would buy this car
Facebook market place I got mine for 1500
I have a xc90 v8 for winter and I love it. Want a s80 v8. But have to sell my 08 honda civic Mugan si.
Not developed by Yamaha. It is designed, engineered and developed by Volvo. Yamaha were contracted to build it, that is all.
That explains the end of the balance shaft being open to the environment. Yamaha would NEVER have done something so stupid.

European car with Japanese sort of design
Maintaining this car would be a nightmare

Nope
I’ve had mine for 6 years. No issues as I’ve maintained properly throughout this ownership
