We purchased this S70 mostly because it is just a nice car. It looks great and is in surprisingly good condition for its age, especially inside. On Volvos of this age, we normally see a lot more wear on the interior, cracked leather etc. This S70 appears to have been well cared for. Plus with the great condition of the body, except for stone chips on the nose it really appears to have much of its mileage on the highway. in addition to looking good, this car is also current on service and in good working order. Everything functions correctly and it runs & drives just as it should. The SE model is set up to have all of the luxury features without the added moving parts of AWD or a turbo engine. We see the value in these cars because they are not expensive to buy and they last a very long time. Plus as we all know, Volvos are and always have been some of the safets cars on the road. Due to the age and mileage, financing is not available.
