There have been issues with the 1999/2000. Whether they were cleaned up by
2001 or not I am not sure. for other places to check google on Volvospy, the
brickboard and sweedspeed. That will point you to three places where there
S80 specific forums.

The issues in 1999 were relatively minor and were cleared up by the 2000 MY
with the exception of the ball joint recall which should have been taken
care of under warrantee. I wouldn't hesitate to buy any well cared for
example of an S80 from any year. Make sure the car has not been in any
serious accidents and it is not flood/damaged. These cars were designed to
last a long time. Parts/repairs will cost more than for the smaller/lighter
Volvos though, they are not economy cars.
