VOLVO C70 CC READER REVIEWS

My car

Having brought this car end 2006 from new for £35K fairly fully loaded, it has been fraught with ongoing problems. Leaking windows, faulty air conditioning compressor (neede replacing just outside of warranty at £700 fitted) creaking windows and roof, loose wiring loom in roof, faulty electric front windows (sticks half way down when raising or lowering roof), recall for oil pressure problems - now keep getting engine service warning light every 6 months due to oil pressure problem. To make matters worse, the resale values have dropped through the floor.

It should be a great stylish cabriolet. It has all the right looks from what I believed was a quality manufacturer - Reality is that the build quality is so disappointing and the main dealer seems to be disinterested in sorting out any of the problems. Will never recomend buy a Volvo C70 again (or any other Volvo based on this experience.

I have the same experience with Volvo as Linda, Car is 18 months old from brand new and has been in 9 times. The car has 10 faults and is of unsatisfactory quality and not fit for purpose. Complete nightmare car and all i get from Volvo is a part exchange on which, i lose 50% of the value of the car in 18 months. The car has only 11.000 miles. Office of Fair trading is urging me to go to court.

I have owned many cars over the years...but never one that made people stop and talk to me about it. This car is a head-turner...especially with the top down. I've only owned it for a year, so I can't attest to the workmanship over the long term, but if it's a very economical, relatively practical (4 seats, big trunk when roof up) machine to be seen in...then this is your car.
