Volvo C70

Volvo’s glamarous coupe was discontinued in 2002, after five years in production (although the cabriolet carried on). This model broadened Volvo’s appeal, adding a sexy coupe to a range consisting of dutiful saloons and estates. The underpinnings are tried-and-tested; they’ve come from the old S70 saloon, which has kept reliability. It’s a good used buy, but not as glam as it once was.

The Volvo C70 is a comfortable coupe-convertible offered with a range of characterful five-cylinder engines

Genuine four-seat coupe-convertible. Tidy handling and a comfortable long-distance cruiser. Stylish looks, especially roof down.
