Hi,
I am restoring a 67 Amazon and have discovered the incredibly knowledgeable and helpful folks on Brickboard.

But I'm now looking at buying 1998 C70 Coupe with 100,000 miles with automatic transmission. (Not as a replacement for my beloved 122S!)

Thoughts, opinions on what to look for. I know I'm asking the Volvo faithful....but how is the reliability on this model? They didn't make that many of them so I'm having trouble tracking down long-term data.

Thanks for much!
Long live Volvo!
Pat.

The only additional problems the C70 has are the unique parts: seats, windows, and doors. Other than those items, it is an S70 GLT/T5 depending on which turbo it has.
I hope what you are looking at is the Saffron color :)
