Used C70 Buying Advice requested C70

One problem with both models is the frameless power windows. The mechanisms are similar to Audis, by Siemens I think, so they are German expensive too. I had to replace the drivers side window mechanism, and the parts were about 800, not including labor. Works fine now, but I don't use it much on purpose.

Also, wind noise is not on par with V70s, due to the frameless windows.

Its a nice car, but with flaws. I bought used, would never buy new, way too expensive at the time. Hopefully, the new C70 with hardtop convertible will be better.

The rest of the car is largely a V70 (old model), so its pretty solid.
