1998 Volvo S70 GLT Special Edition review from North America
"Fast, and a great value"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing major.
General comments?
Very, very quick and one of the best value cars on the market today... I was strongly considering buying another BMW but someone mentioned Volvo... I am glad I made the investment and saved myself thousands of dollars... not to mention I have a car that is really quick, handles great, and is all around a great car and fun to drive
