I'll put in my 2 cents worth. The 2005 is pretty good, especially with the T5 engine. The T6 is to be avoided at all cost. The T6 has twin turbos and generates much too much heat, frying the electronics.
If there is maint hist, read it! If not, question why. Some S80 owners are very happy, others think they are just money pits. The electronics are mind boggling!! Open the fuse box on the 940, then find the 3 fuse boxes on the S80...
