Volvo S70 Made from 1998 to 2000, this sporty model replaced the 850 sedan and instantly became a hit.

REALLY dumb question.

Default REALLY dumb question.
Hey, Bought my '98 s70 GLT about two weeks ago and
I originally thought that the 'T' in GLT meant TURBO. and since
ive had doubts i have looked in the owner's manual, on the
engine itself, on the label on driver's door. And i cant find any
evidence whatsoever which model it is!!! Please Help?!?!? thanx

No worries on the info. we all ask questions we have no idea on at some point on here. It's all about learning!

and the back of the engine?
