Just want to say hello and like in the title i planning on buying an used vovlo c70 (not convertible). It will be propably a 2000 model. Do you have any suggestions where should I look first to chceck out if the car isnt broken or in bad condition? or do you have any other tips? (2000year, 2,0T, Manual, 113000 km)

thanks

Make sure all the windows work smoothly,Make sure the engine mounts are good.
Other than that you should be fine.

Hi, I have had mine for about 12 months now and the only problems i have had are, the brakes binding (sticking) and the front caliper failing cost £125 (parts only) and the drivers side electric window switch burning out cost to replace £70 (parts only). Other than that I love it!!! it's luxurious comfortable and I feel nice driving it.

Nice,
Thx for answers. I like this car much but I have heard that volco service is pretty expensive and so are all the parts. Thanks again:)
