Great Volvo C70 T5 Vert

Recently purchased 2008 C70 T-5 with only 51K miles from 1st Choice Auto in Fairfax VA. Excellent condition, very tight engine and on-road performance. Turbo acceleration is great. Excellent Carfax. No accident and interior is a 9.5/10. Top rises and closes perfectly and car is built like a brick with ROPS (roll-over protection). Hard to find these 2008-13 C70s with low mileage (and without accidents.) Curated purchase by First Choice Auto from a new dealer on a trade-in made all the difference.

This has been the most fun and reliable car ever

Never a doll moment. Top works flawlessly. Never gets old, very good looking stylish car. plenty of pep with the turbo engine. Very well-built and safe vehicle. Automatic pop-up bars for additional safety.

YOU should own a convertible once in your life!

There is no equal to driving to the beach @ 70 mph with the top down and your favorite "road tunes" sounding just awesome! Fun to drive and great to look at! Hey, it's really hard to beat a red, savvy convertible!

I LOVE this car!

I love the C70 T5 Convertible. It is so much fun to drive, and I also like that's is so safe. As a single mom I wanted a safe, reliable, and useable car, but I also wanted a convertible with a racy side. I love that it's safe

A Fun and Safe Car

I really enjoy my Volvo C70 hardtop convertible which gives me the best of two worlds. I can let the top down and feel free but still safe or have the top up which cancels ourside noise.

Coolest convertible ever

This car is the best of all worlds. A safe Volvo with airbags everywhere. Fast because it's an inline 5 cyl turbo. The car looks like a transformer when the top is going up or down.

Cool convertible

My first Volvo and steel top convertible! It has a lot of features that takes some time to adjust to, and can be customized to your liking! 5 Cylinder turbo is plenty quick and still pretty good on gas! I have owned a lot of convertibles and love the hard top, quiet as a sedan with top up, in 30 seconds top is down, although you lose some trunk space, fun car to drive!!!

Classic Style for Summer Fun!

Classic convertible lines with the most comfortable seats ever! One touch retracks and stores the hardtop with engineering artistry. The interior design is sleek and timeless. Smooth ride with sport handling. Excellent all round vehicle!

Very reliable car and fun to drive!

I love the convertible hard top. It has good pick up and easy to handle. It has 118000 miles and with the top up I can hear rattles but nothing to sound system won't drown out. Good miliage (24.7) so far.
