Frequently asked questions
How much is a 2009 Volvo S80 worth?
A 2009 Volvo S80 has a median retail value of $2,900, with most appraised between $2,720 and $4,564. At Copart and IAAI salvage auctions the same vehicles sold for a median of $375 across 6 recent sales — the middle 50% between $350 and $450.
Why is the 2009 Volvo S80 so cheap at auction?

For the 2009 Volvo S80 that gap runs about 7.7× — $2,900 retail against a $375 auction median. The spread is the repair bill, the title brand, and the risk.
