In today's video, I got hold of both generations of Volvo S80: The original P2 generation (an ex-Topher Fleet car) and the Ford based P3 model. The differences may surprise you; enjoy!

Just bought a 1ST Gen 2.9 S80. Best car I have ever driven. No turbo fun but what a fantastic engine and nice drive. Going to use time and money to restore it to 100%.

First generation Volvo looks better than second gen in my opinion

Not too bad as a description of the characteristics. The P2 S80 will become a classic.

Nice. Love my 03 2.9 p2 s80. Unfortunately I have a coolant leak that just started but it’s almost at 200,000 miles so I’m not surprised. Slowly getting him back to pristine condition since November. Yes the seats are comfiest, I love daily driving it ✨

It might be rough shape and look like poop but ill let you know that this engine and those seats will serve you if you drive to the moon and back, strong non turbo engines and most comfy seats ever... i have same seats on my 2002 S60 and 2.4i , it has 300k km goes like new. More comfy than my 2015 Polestar V60

I have a P2 2004 S80 2.4 5-cil 170hp non turbo. Almost two years now, it's so comfortable to drive ❤ Planning to keep it for long. (I have a yt shorth with the acceleration) Edit: thnx for the good and funny video.

Hey man, that was a nice review! I just bought my first volvo s80 P2 2003, mine is the 2.4 D5 diesel though. Came from a honda civic and oh boy do i feel like royalty, indeed these seats are the most confortable that i've ever sat on any vehicle. Mine has the phone thing which is kinda cool to show friends. Got it for 2500€ from my uncle who was getting rid of it for a XC90. Best deal ever!

I'm driving S80 model year Early 2016. Inside and outside tweaked, only downside is it only as 4 cylinder 2.0 liter engines - I have a diesel... and I am really big fan of it... The interior is bit more sophisticated compared to 2009 model

I'm interested in the newer S80. It looks very understated, elegant and sensible. I just wonder how they are in terms of reliability and cost to own in terms of potential repairs.

P3 was compromised by sharing a Ford platform. It did not have Volvo proportions. The front overhang particularly.

Be nice to have the p3 t6 engine/ transmission in the p2 body

@abdelaziz855 17 күн бұрын

If you have the transmission/Gearbox mount from an S60 p2, you can definitely have the Six Speed Automatic fit into a p2 s80.

@abdelaziz855 thx for your reply, what about the electronics though? Would definitely need the p3 donors ecu’s yes?

@abdelaziz855 16 күн бұрын

@@muckle8 yeah on the electrical parts it would be a very Complicated process, and most very likely it would need a Volvo Technician/Tuner that knows how to work on Aisin Auto Gearboxes. Although, You most definitely would need a wiring harness, Transmission control module with Code that fits the Gearbox itself, and a Proper not very high mileage but mid or low mileage Aisin Tf80sc Gearbox. Note: you would also need to Rewire a couple of things, as for the Ecu from a P3 Doner car, i think you wouldn't need it, since i do not think P3s have a separated Unit managers like the P2 cars.

@retropojat Күн бұрын

@@TopherParkerCars With about 10 years of experience with Volvos, P2 is higher quality than P3 but not much. P3 had rust issues, faulty keys, failing ecm's, fuel pumps etc. Taking into consideration that Ford had massive funds for their Rnd compared to Volvo in late 90's the P3 wasnt that great. P2 4-speed automatic is gm-made and thats why its bad, Aisin made 5-speed transmissions are bulletproof. 2.9 was average engine, the T6 was good enough, but maintenance was horrible ordeal. The true winners are 5-cylinder diesel engines and 2,4t and 2,5t engines which could last 400k to 500k without any issues. During Ford's ownership Volvo lost some of its identity and tried to appeal to owners of german cars. XC70 and V70 are propably the best of the P3 platform. The newer s80 isnt bad, its actually a lot better to drive, but not as comfy as the old model. Legendary Peter Horbury desinged the older model which was the last true Volvo of the two.
