2004 Volvo C70 Convertible from North America
Summary:
Excellent purchase of a low mile sports car that needed TLC... Beautiful car
Faults:
Bought this car for $2000... Rear windshield had fallen out. Prior owner was at a loss to fix it (he was told $2,500, needed a new top)... I watched YouTube and did the job for $75 and 14 hours.
Had some electrical issues that I fixed.
Needed front end work and tires cost me $1400.
He had a nasty dent in the side from the car rolling backwards and the open door hitting a tree (????)... Looked nasty, but I got a guy to fix and paint it for $800... So I'm in it for about $4500, but it had only 46,000 and his maintenance records were meticulous (oil every 3,000 or 3 months, never missed).
General Comments:
After taking care of the above, this car is absolutely awesome... Runs and drives like a true sports car. Convertible top is a marvel. Has a ton of life in it. I'm not really a sports car guy, but the low miles and purchase price, I couldn't turn it down. So, now I own a really cool sports car with low miles. Could easily sell for what I'm in it for.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Don't Know
