Love love love this car
The timeless design is simply gorgeous yet it's subtle, elegant. Apparently featured in some Saint movie that I didn't watch. Super comfy chairs & very soft suspension took some getting used to (can't feel the rd, imo) but then... It's like riding on a cloud! Overall, an enjoyable drive. The best part: I've the optional sound system w/ like 400 something watts. I've yet to encounter another stock sound that's even close! Amazing bass that u can actually hear. Overall very full but clean sound... An audiophile's dream come true. So, I practically drove this to the ground. 2 major accidents. Yet my only problem (& I hear it's common), is that the dash got loose so when I hit bumps, the bottom of windshield smacks the dash. I stuffed it w/ a bunch of foam, seems to help some. But that's the only problem.... This is a solid car! & Could've, would've continued driving if it weren't for my alcoholic loser ex losing it. 😫 Oh my 1 other complaint is the power seating is SOOOO slow. Other pros tho: elegant interior feels spacious considering the car size; lux features r std... i.e. heated front seats (butt warmer), daytime running lights was cutting edge for that time, fog lights that's both highly functional & good looking; surprisingly roomy back seats & trunk; also appreciate the golf club hole in the trunk (the time when I locked my keys in the trunk, that was a lifesaver.) Last... Extremely rare! I loved that unlike my current car that I c everywhere, I spot a C70 like once or 2x a yr. Yep... I desperately tried to but was unable to replace this.

A fun car to own and drive
I am the second owner; bought it when it was about 1 1/2 years old. Any problems I've encountered have been minor and taken care of by the dealer under warranty. The car is a blast to drive and you can actually carry passengers in the back seat.
Won't do it again
We bought this Volvo C70 Convertible with 74K on it. With in the first two weeks of owning it we had to have front end work done on it. Then the motor in the driver seat died while it was in the lean forward position. That was 1K to fix. After that the top got stuck half way up. Finally, when it rained we got an inch of water in the passinger side floor. I loved this car but did not want to put another dime in it. We got rid of it 6 months after buying it. I'm still attracted to Volvo's though. Only if I had a bigger wallet.
