  • Like the Volvo 960? Here's a decked out version celebrating the final years of the RWD production from Volvo.
    Vehicle is either a standard 5-seater with long wheelbase, or a 4 seater provided by two independent power adjustable rear seats. Optional rear console air conditioning and drink coolers; excellent interior lighting, and it's powered by the smooth Volvo-Porsche inline-6 :) Guarentee to inspire all Volvo owners alike!
    Correction: only 30 of these cars have the longer wheelbase.
    Check out www.volvolife.jp for documentary of a Japanese owner committed to restoration of his Volvo S90 Royal.
    Many of the luxury features in this car are now obtainable in modern cars, (or better), like powered sun shades and automatic windows..

    Mine is a '97 960 executive... 160k miles and still going strong,it's pretty bulletproof for the last 70k miles of ownership. It's the real Volvo quality.

    I love the S90 Royal. I have the S90 Limited Edition from new. My car just hit 100,000 miles and still looks like brand new. It has out lived two new cars and is w me for life. I just love the body shape that I can spot a 9 series a mile away. I just wished they would have made it a foot longer in the inside for better room for the back seater would have made the car almost perfect in my eyes. Abram, Austin TX.

    I have a 1998 S90 U.S. spec. car. Just turned 100K and running strong, and although 12 years of age now is still a head turner and have lost count of how many times people have ask me is it a new model that replaced the S80. I have had many Volvos from a 240DL to a 850 Estate which I still have. Never a let down and remain enjoyable to this day. Have looked at the newer ones, such as the 2011 S60, which I really like, but somehow the magic of the S90 is still there for me. Looking for a Royal.

    Now, as a long time Volvo fan I just want to state that this was the last Volvo made under full ownership of Volvo but that doesn't mean that it was the last real Volvo. In fact, today's Volvos are even more competitive than the ones that were made under full Volvo ownership and that shows through Volvo's increasing safety, and reliability scores. In fact, Volvo has just surpassed Mercedes in terms of overall reliability.

    It depends on what your looking at when you compare the two, if you want a quiet ride, Lexus LS is the way to go, but personally i like the S90 Royal more, it drives smoother and has a nicer feel overall.

    @petershen1984 Well, scandinavian design never looses its flair.. so youre right in that respect. But to smell and feel the essence of a volvo, you should first own some of the old bank-vaults like the 240GL, 740GLE, 960GL, S90, or even S70... and then you're allowed to buy the new ones.. don't worry, scandinavians retain their tradition very well... cheers :)

  • @petershen1984
    @petershen1984  17 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Hehe. I raced my 960 up mountains (although the gearbox is notoriously terrible for it!) and, compared immediately to a VW Polo, one was able to tell the difference being pulled upwards (FWD) versus being pushed from behind (RWD). Great car!

  • @pepefabbri
    @pepefabbri 13 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Something I dislike about the automatic transmission is the fact that it doesn´t have 2nd gear, as other Volvo models, which is quite important when you drive uphill and downhill (montanious roads). Bisides that, the S90 its a beatiful car. Becareful with the cooling system, which is prone to fail.

    haha, sorry, I meant the 240 basically stayed the same for the 19 years, with changes to the headlights and choice of engines that's about it...
    With any new car comes the risk of acceptance... like the controversial 7-series BMW design. And yet, yesterday I saw the nextgen 7-series is hard to get used to. I mean, the oversized radiator grille that extends into the bumper.....

Just take a look at rear seats with lighting, as well as the front dash. WHY DOES VOLVO DISCONTINUE A GOOD THING?

    @DonaldRumsfailed 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    Mine's a regular peon model 96 960. A lovely car, with a few quirks. The seat cable was broken, now fixed. The electrical is kind of wacky. It's terribly gutless for such big displacement, and gets horridly low mileage (it's own version of 'no gain, all pain'). Still, I love the car, though. Turns great. Stops well. Seats are comfort defined.

    the styling is nice in its own way but it looks too similiar to the older 740/760. I like the look of current volvos, though once again the new S80 is barely distinguishable to the old one, what's the point of releasing a new model if you're not going to show everyone how new it is?

    you have to have a target market for each product though, you can't just design something that is just going to be for everyone. the design part is easier if you have the target market because you can focus on the details.
    i guess this car is designed for the wealthy people in general who like the luxurious feel, not just 'celebrities' lol

    You'd be sadly misinformed. Volvo has confirmed the V60 wagon to be coming to the U.S. in the winter of 2013. And who cares if it isn't RWD? The fact of the matter is that even a base 3.2 FWD S80 could beat this car in a drag race and in terms of handling. And let's not forget the T6 AWD version.
