    I vote for the 320D. But I have never driven the other models you have mentioned. 320D is good looking, fuel consumption is ok. The acceleration and performance is very good for a diesel engine. Parts are available, you can get the work done at either milroy or other places. And I kinda don't like the volvo brand, i would not even compare.

    yes, it should be in the top :) I haven't measured the fuel consumption bro, but driving it is kinda big relief to my pocket compared to the another car i drive which does about 6 kmpl (petrol). well, i know thats a not good comparison. but i will try to get exact information as soon as possible.

    parts are seriously overpriced in the sl market, according to my opinion. recently had to replace the diesel pump and the cost was about 75k.

    thnx mate...with the safety, comfort, stability,etc. S80 is in the top...fuel consumption is almost same i guess and i think 2nd hand value of S 80 in Sri Lanka is lesser than 320D,,,still its very much competitive...both are strong oppositions..:oo:

    6 kmpl...that's nut..:baffled::baffled::baffled:..one wallet won't enough to keep money for you then.. but i like to know whats the car...?
    thanks mate..it will be a great help if you can get the average fuel consumption...and with spare part prices i think nothing different with S60 or S80.. might be expensive too...:rolleyes:
