Buying the 2004 Volvo C70

We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2004 Volvo C70 for sale by us right now. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Here is what to know about the 2004 Volvo C70 before buying one.

A buyer's checks

NHTSA lists no recall campaign for this model year. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. NHTSA has 15 owner complaints on file, mostly about electrical system, power train and air bags. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace.

Reading the spec sheet

The powertrain to know here is the 2.3L 5-cylinder turbo, with front-wheel drive. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.

It is rated at 11.8 L/100 km combined, so budget about 35 litres for 300 km. At our price setting, 1,000 km costs about $206.50. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$4,100 a year for 15,000 miles.

Room inside

Being a small car, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives. Luggage space is rated at 227 litres: about a large suitcase and a couple of soft bags.

A good match for

It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.

A longer test drive

Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. Try the C70 on your commute, then decide. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer.

The cost of driving it

Premium gas adds to the running cost compared with a car on regular. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $20.65 in fuel. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.

Choosing the right one

Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Within the 2004 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which.
