99 Volvo C70...Poor value...poor bulld!

My Volvo c70 always had quirks. At 90k the front end made thunks and bangs...At 95k the axles and bearings were shot. Interior pieces were like you'd expect from a Yugo and the fit and finish were not up to Volvo standards. I owned 240's and 740 Volvo's. The c70 was not in the same league...And to think they were $40k new.....I think Volvo sold the company a year later for a good reason..... Advice....If you can get a low mile example for $1500....take a chance. Not a real Volvo...

VOLVO is the best

VOLVO are great cars. I have S40 2001, S70 GLT 1998, S60 2003 AWD, S60 T5. The whole family is driving Volvo. A tank made for harsh Canadian winter. Reliable and comfortable machine.

C70 Ragtop

Bought the car used, and have not had so much fun and been so happy with a car since I was a kid... It runs well, handles itself well, and has great seats. Creature comforts, and features (like all window at once buttons) are great. My only complaint, and it is very easy to deal with, is that the turning radius is huge, more like a truck than car. That is actually the only complaint I have at all! I love the car, and would recommend to friends, and will buy another.
