Should You Buy a Volvo S80 (2004)? Join Us For a Thrilling Road Test With Stunning Drone Footage!

​‪@tariqtvproductions‬
Welcome to Tariq TV Productions! Today we're bringing you an exciting review and road test of the 2004 Volvo S80, complete with stunning drone footage. Our hosts Tariq & Baz will take you through everything you need to know about this luxurious saloon, so buckle up and get ready for a thrilling ride!
First things first, let's talk about the drone footage. We're thrilled to bring you this unique perspective on the Volvo S80, as our drone captures the car from every angle as it glides through the sunny streets of Bolton on a beautiful Easter day. The footage truly showcases the elegance and power of the S80, giving you a bird's-eye view of its sleek lines and impressive performance.
Now, let's dive into the review. The 2004 Volvo S80 is a sophisticated and stylish saloon that packs a punch under the bonnet. With a 2.5-liter turbocharged engine, it produces an impressive 208 horsepower and 236 pound-feet of torque. This powertrain is paired with a smooth-shifting 5-speed automatic transmission, providing a seamless driving experience.
But the S80 isn't just about power - it's also packed with luxury features that will make you feel like royalty behind the wheel. Our test model came equipped with leather seats, dual-zone climate control, and a premium sound system, among other amenities. Everything inside the S80 feels well-crafted and high-quality, from the plush seats to the intuitive controls.
Out on the road, the S80 handles like a dream. The suspension is tuned for a smooth ride, absorbing bumps and road imperfections with ease. The steering is responsive and precise, making it easy to navigate tight turns and corners. And with all that power under the bonnet, the S80 has no trouble accelerating onto highways or passing slower vehicles.
But the real star of the show here is the drone footage. As our camera follows the S80 in Bolton, you'll get a sense of just how majestic this car truly is. From the sweeping curves of its body to the subtle details of its design, the S80 is a work of art on four wheels. And with the sun shining down on us, it's clear that this car was made for open roads and clear skies.
Overall, we were thoroughly impressed by the 2004 Volvo S80. It's a luxurious saloon with plenty of power, and it's packed with features that make every drive feel like a first-class experience. And with the added bonus of our stunning drone footage, this review is one you won't want to miss. Thanks for watching Tariq TV Productions - be sure to subscribe for more great content!

great video bro.keep up the good work.

[@tariqtvproductions]

Thanks, got more stuff planned in the near future 🙂

[@user-kf9fy3dz7z]

I got 2004 Volvo s80. Drives excellent and comfortable but engine ignition light came on 2 years ago and cannot turn it off. Still drives perfect.

[@tariqtvproductions]

Those 5 cylinder engines are good! 🙂

[@charlesstevenson5894]

Looks nice. Owned one myself (W reg) and it was a great car, wide comfortable and relaxing to drive. Yours is a facelift model (different badge on steering wheel) so there are some trim differences on the car that make them look better.

[@tariqtvproductions]

They're great cars. The s80 feels solid and reminds me of a cross between a w124 mercedes with the thoughtful nuances in it's design (such as the windscreen ticket holder) and a bmw E34 with it's bank vault like feel. A great car!

[@ladam2356]

Best ever

[@tariqtvproductions]

Volvos and Saabs are underrated, if you know. You know! 😉

[@muckle8]

Volvo - simply THE best

[@tariqtvproductions]

Volvo are Swedish Tanks and love the understated image of them 😁

[@muckle8]

Hi Tariq agree completely and thx to you and baz for your combined efforts in bringing us Volvoholics this piece of motoring near perfection! You can tell your both petrolheads too!

[@tariqtvproductions]

@@muckle8 you're welcome thanks! If I get anymore Volvos to review watch this space. In the meantime please check out my cars and Jaguar playlists reviewed loads of cars with Baz, w124 merc, ford's and about 8 Jags! 😁

[@muckle8]

Will watch those definately thx

[@police5660]

Thanks for the video! i currently own a 2005 S80 2,5 L 5 cilinder with a bit more accessories, like navigation in the middle of the sound system on the dashboard and the storage in the center console is the phone. Nicky

[@tariqtvproductions]

You're welcome thanks Nicky! Volvos of this generation are solid cars 🙂

[@skylinefreeway4145]

This one is non turbo engine....

[@tariqtvproductions]

Yes that's correct it's n/a 👍

[@charlesstevenson5894]

You commented that one of thecentre buttons was a 'climate button' but AFAIK it's to override and switch off the internal alarm sensor, if, for example, you wanted to leave a dog in the car.

[@tariqtvproductions]

Thanks 👍

[@charlesstevenson5894]

Looks like someone specified wind deflectors for the front doors, too.

[@tariqtvproductions]

Good call - didn't spot that! 🙂

[@Musicmedstudio]

I have one for sale, gold with cream interior and optional wood steering wheel. Mine is a 2.0T 5 cylinder 180hp 153.500mi full service history

[@tariqtvproductions]

Nice touch with the wooden steering wheel. The T5's are rockets!

[@datwistyman]

You missed the rear window shade 👍🙂

[@tariqtvproductions]

Don't think this model has sunshade? Love these era of Volvos. Moreover, love that they are underrated you can pick up a bargain if you know you know I guess! 😉

[@meflakkkk]

So is it the 2.4 or 2.5T?

[@tariqtvproductions]

2.4 the 5 cylinder petrol only came in the 2.4 I believe

[@andrejmichal4676]

Greetings from Slovakia! The color is called Graphite Grey Metallic. I have a 2003 S80 daily driver with the same engine and color, but with manual transmission and black leather interior. I agree with all the comments in the video: the ride is quiet and comfortable, car feels well built, solid and robust, beautifully designed, although the center console is a bit plasticky to my taste. One of the last "true" Volvos of the pre-Ford era. Cheap AF as no one wants them. The compact S60 is generally more sought after. They make nice youngtimers, but dont expect them to appreciate in the future.

[@tariqtvproductions]

Thanks, yes they're solid cars. I think the rare T6's will go up in value 🙂

[@eldincopelj954]

How about the fuel consumption? What are some cons of this car? I am currently looking at a 2.4 petrol, 140hp, manual, 218K km mileage, 2005, priced at 3.5k euros. I can't find enough details online for that one and the forums are simply filled with mumbo-jumbo. What should I pay attentiom to? Any good l web pages that detail the main issues of the car and what I can expect from it in the future? Hello from Bosnia!

[@tariqtvproductions]

@@eldincopelj954 hi they are quite thirsty on mpg. To be completely honest I don't know what to look for sorry. The bodies generally are very well built and I don't think they suffer from rust as they were built for the cold Swedish climate. Are there any other cars you'd like to buy or just specifically Volvo?

[@eldincopelj954]

@@tariqtvproductions There are, but all of them are used cars. Looking at Mercedes c220 or e-classe (2001-5), maybe a Focus caravan, the one with high tail lights and a Peugeot 407 SW or sedan. Current budget, not more than 3.5K euros. Something less would make me happy. Hard and tiring to find quality in Bosnia. Hence, the Volvo attraction despite its thirst. Not a frequent driver to be honest, most rides are almost unneccassary city rides but would enjoy the comfort and luxury when traveling to another city, once or twice in two months. Currently driving a Vectra 2001 sw, damaged ac, not worth the fix, some rust issues, leaking coolant and wiper fluid, etc. not worth a fix. Sick of it. Happens during hot summers.

[@tariqtvproductions]

@@eldincopelj954 what about 2002 petrol V6 Toyota Camry? They come in auto, leather, electric seats and from what I've heard are supposed to be reliable - they're a Toyota you can't go wrong! They might be within budget?

[@eldincopelj954]

@@tariqtvproductions Thanks for the trouble of answering. Bosnia mate. Only one Camry being sold in whole country at the moment and it's 2019. We mainly drive Germans and French (though we make sure to always emphasize how shitty they are), and some Skodas. Japanese are rare, unfortunately.

[@Spoolingturbski]

The only S80 anyone should ever buy is a 2.5t in the states. DO NOT get a 2.9 or T6. Period. Don’t care if it’s one owner with 60k on it. Stay away at all costs. It will destroy your marriage, break up your family, you’ll lose your house and end up homeless. I mean other than that…. It’s an amazing car ahead of its time.

[@tariqtvproductions]

I thought the police used the s80 T6's? What's so bad about them?

[@Spoolingturbski]

@@tariqtvproductions well the 2.5t is unstoppable. But the T6 had issues with the turbos, they had a GM transmission that couldn’t handle the power, tons of electrical issues. They are amazing when they run, but other than that a nightmare. I would recommend to anyone a 2.5t though. Amazing cars

[@tariqtvproductions]

@@Spoolingturbski thanks, hope I can get some more Volvos on the channel to review 🙂
