The new 5 cyl engines can still be worked on, that's why we are here. Just less walking around in the engine bay room :)
Timing belts for the 1999+ cars are at 105K intervals, 94-98 at 70K.

What is hard to repair is the AT, so check the fluid for color and smell.

The C70 is like the 780, engine parts are easy to find, the interior is impossible! And the heavy doors.

I would look around for a C70 that runs and everything works. Obviously, the owner wasn't mechanically oriented, otherwise the strut mount wouldn't have poked a hole through the hood :)
