Talking 1999 volvo s70 t5 5 speed manual

Hell all im new,short intro im a 17y/o male that is loooking at purchasing the car stated above.

I found it after a few months of looking

1999
Turbo
S70 t5 5-speed manual
157,375 miles

Foud it online have yet to see it in person,from the pictures it looks great condition no rust/dents seen.the paint job looks great and took ages to find it in black.the interior is tan sadly(i like black more).the seats are amazing condition thr leather is mint both sides.from what i can see theres no air pockets in the door leather in which many s70s have

The only small problem is its in a different state but if i buy it i wont care to ship since i checked on it today to see if its still for sale they dripped the price from 3,995 to $2,995 which to me is a steal.

I really want a true volvo enthusiasts opinion on it an any tips before i purchase my first vehicle.

Hello apollo, I think it's a great car, but just look at my signature and see the things I have had to fix on this car and get ready if they haven't been taken care of. There is more to that list btw(ETM, PCV SYSTEM, and my clutch whenever it goes, and those are not cheap especially the latter) which I am in the process of slowly fixing, whether myself or through my mechanic.

Good car, sleeper, quick, could use better handling. Some interior noise gets annoying sometimes. but all in all get the thing and welcome to the T5M club.


I have the same one as you're buying but black interior, and no I won't sell mine for that low lol :P



good luck if you buy it.
