The VOLVO C70 (2006-09) 2DR CONVERTIBLE 2.4 D5 SE GTRON AUTO5 is a four-seat diesel convertible for buyers seeking open-air motoring with more comfort and space than a small roadster. In the UK used market, it is a premium cruiser, not a city car or practical hatchback. Mycarcheck.com recorded 335 checks across 171 VINs: a useful sample, but not a complete picture of cars for sale. Average private-sale value was £2,000, with 107,000 miles recorded and 4,000 annual miles. Owners averaged 4.5 previous keepers, making a history and condition check important. The five-speed automatic and diesel engine are well suited to relaxed longer trips, while the folding roof adds sunny-day appeal; this is more comfortable cruiser than sporty roadster. It suits couples or small families wanting occasional rear seats and touring ability. Compared with rivals, the C70 is distinctive for its hardtop that folds away and Volvo’s comfort-minded character for touring.
