    Advantages Advantages Speed,comfort, room and that sound system

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Using the back seats, cost of parts.

    Let's start at the beginning. Mine is a C70 2.3ltr high pressure turbo, 240 bhp, automatic, in that gold colour on the front page, first register in 2000. I have owned it for 18 months and covered almost 40,000 miles. The seats and headroom are excellent for me (6'4''). Adjustable steering column (reach and height) nice long arm rest on door, and this is where the first niggle comes in, the centre arm rest is an inch lower than the doors, usually not a problem except on long journeys you finish sitting a little cock eyed. Niggle two how long does it take to get those electric front seats to ... more

    Advantages Advantages Fast, safe, stylish, fun

    Disadvantages Disadvantages none?

    The people who brought you slab-sided safety now give you style and speed. The C70 is as long as the V70 estate with which it shares its platform, but tricks the eye thanks to sculpted sides and narrowing lines front and rear - both firsts for Volvo. Electric front seats adjust in all directions and give good lateral support; the high waistline gives the impression of sitting low and headroom is generous. There are two proper rear seats and nearly as much leg and headroom as in a V70. Standard toys include air-con, cruise control and a superb stereo featuring three-CD autochanger, 10 speakers ... more

    Advantages Advantages Super fast super super luxury

    Disadvantages Disadvantages It's a bit Ford Capri in the wet

    I want to tell you about the joy of a second hand C70 T5. I'll be brief and to the point. For 12000 quid you can get hold this great car. I bought one a few months ago from an ex company car dealer in sussex with 80000 on the clock for just shy of 12k and boy was it money well spent. It has a full volvo service history, I can burn up anyone in this car and despite being ex fleet, it still drives almost like new. The engine is quiet and when the turbo kicks in at 3000 revs it really does take off, not with a grunt like some cars, but with a kind of gliding motion as if you were driving on an ... more

    Advantages Advantages Very fast, suprisingly affordable

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Fairly rare, resprays

    I must admit that when a good friend of mine swapped his Mercedes 230 Kompressor for a Volvo C70 T5 I thought he'd made a bad judgement, this then went out of the window as soon as we got out on the road. The performance of the C70 T5 is frankly... suprisingly quick. The T5 (turbo) in the C70 automatic will outsprint most other (if not all) cars in its class, the 0-60 is in the low 6's, but remember this car is a sophisticated cruiser for business men rather than a boy racer from The Fast and the Furious. When pushed to the limit the car absolutely flies, I hadn't heard much about the T5 ... more

    Advantages Advantages Realllly Stylish

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Pretty damn expensive

    Its a beautiful machine, but i doubt many people could pull off a car with this much class. We had one of these in a few weeks back, surprised someone in my area could afford one of these. I cant remember exactly what the problem was, there was some rattling she wanted us to look at, i think it was the dash and the roof. I guess its not that expensive considering all the stuff you get with it; Electric and Heated mirrors, Electric Windows, Metallic paint comes as standard instead of an addition few hundred quid, Leather Seats, Air Conditioning etc.. Its not really good at turning though, and ... more
