Used 1998 Volvo S70 T5 Turbo for Sale near Varennes, QC

This and other Volvo's are often looked over as they are assumed to be heavy, slow, expensive to maintain, and boxy in looks. This car weighs jut over 3000 pounds, and is powered by a 2.3L inline five cylinder engine producing near 240 horse power and 270 ft lbs of torque as LOW AS 1250 rpms. 0-60 times are between 5 and 6 seconds, and the stock quarter mile is 14 seconds. Not bad for a 11 year old vehicle, eh? My 1998 S70 T5 currently has 123,000 miles and has only needed a brake caliper and an AC condenser (under $500 in repairs in 11 years!). this S70 has always been a Jersey and New York car, and still has absolutely no on its underside. It is built like a tank! I hit a dear dead on at 50mph and was able to drive home with just a slightly bent hood and shattered headlights. The interior is plain and straightforward, the steering wheel tilts, and telescopes(goes in and out, for those that sit really close or far away from the seat.) And the seats are one of the most comfortable seats you will sit on, a d also contain a whiplash protection system that coddles your body when you are in an accident, and prevents whiplash. The seat belts have explosive tensioners that will snug you into the seat in the event of an accident, the front air bags are almost not even needed. The side airbags are mechanically set off by steel poles in the sides of the seats, when you are hit in the side and one of these poles is hit, the airbag will go off. Between these steel poles is an iron block that turns the seats into part of the car in the event you are hit in the side to avoid the sides of the car from caving in. These cars are still used in Europe today in the police force because of the quickness, reliability, and there durability. I would buy another one in a heartbeat, this has to be one of the best overall vehicles I have ever owned. I am glad I chose this car over The Subaru's, BMW's, and Mercedes I had looked at... the price for parts and maintenance is as cheap as an American car. Try buying a brake rotor for a BMW for less than $60!, Try changing the brake pads on your Mercedes! oh wait you cant do it without hooking it to a Mercedes computer!

The car just really meets my concept of design perfection. It's almost 10 years old already (only had it for one) and I still admire it despite all new models on the road. Love to drive it. All the sophistication, however, lends itself to a need for maintenance. The ABS light is frequently on, the tranny and turbo fall out of synch, and some interior part is always frayed. I would only recommend this car to people who are in love with it -- it ain't practical.

Quart-mile in 13.8 seconds at 106MPH. Its most definitely a sleeper people try and race me all the time and fail. This car most definitely turns heads left and right. People ask me all the time why would you pick this car? Its a VOLVO!

The car's are very safe and everything is very user friendly. Seats are comfortable and has alot of room. Handles excellent. Has plenty of power for daily driving.

The car is great when I had it, did alot of modifications in it. Performance can be better, but its okay for me. Can beat an WRX on the lights. I loved to speed at my car's maximum speed.
