1998 Volvo S70 GL review from Philippines
"Excelent"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Generally an above average car in terms or ride and performance, but what bad with it is its plastic fascia it tends to melt here in the tropics the power window switch melted and destroyed the power window mecahnism.
Another fault is the constant warning light for ABS which the service ctr says there is nothing wrong with ABS
but I love the car.
General comments?
Good accelaration.
