The professional seller offers for sale this 2001 Volvo C70 2.4 T, powered by a 2.4-litre turbocharged five-cylinder petrol engine, paired with a 5-speed automatic transmission. The C70 cabriolet was Volvo’s elegant answer to the open-top grand tourer, combining a fully powered soft top with the safety reputation and comfort the brand is known for, in a body styled in the late 1990s that has aged gracefully.
The 2.4 T is the powerful variant of the range, with the five-cylinder engine developing 193 hp, as stated by the seller, and the smooth, effortless torque that Volvo’s turbocharged engines are known for. Paired with the automatic gearbox, it makes a relaxed and comfortable cruiser for summer touring, and the C70 has gradually become a sought-after youngtimer among enthusiasts of Scandinavian cabriolets.
This example is finished in the original Volvo dark blue metallic, with a blue soft top that, according to the seller, opens and closes electrically without problems. The seller notes relatively limited signs of use for a car of 25 years and describes the car as drivable. The cabin is trimmed in grey leather, with some signs of use, particularly on the driver’s seat. The seller also discloses that the battery is somewhat weak, that the engine occasionally smokes a little, and that the car stood for a period, so that a service is recommended. The odometer shows 208046 km. The photos include the engine bay, the load area and spare wheel, the underside, and a copy of the vehicle registration papers.
For those looking for an open-top Volvo with a turbocharged five-cylinder engine at an accessible level, this C70 2.4 T is an interesting proposition.
