Default New to me '98 S70

Today I was gifted a VERY clean '98 S70 and I want to take really good care of it. I know the value of belonging to a forum so here I am. I LOVE working on cars.

The car: nothing fancy, silver, great condition (no door dings, never PDR...wow), auto ... I think the only option other than the transmission is power driver seat. The best part is it only has 48k miles and has been meticulously maintained. I will probably change the fluids, timing belt, perhaps add foglights, and drive it. I have another car that would appreciate not commuting so much, as I drive 32 miles each way to work.

I hope to be able to add something to the group, as I have a lot of experiencing repairing cars and with forums.

-Franz

My father in law bought it new about the time he retired, now his health has deteriorated and he can no longer drive it. I am very lucky.

Welcome to the forum.

That is a very low-mileage S70.

Will look forward to your contributions in the S70 forum.
