Introduced in Europe in late 1996 for the 1997 model year and later in the U. S. for the 1998 model year, the Volvo S70 was an updated version of the Volvo 850 saloon. The S70's body style was overall more rounded compared to its predecessor. Changes included a redesigned front end with new lights, fully colour-coded bumpers and side trim, and clear indicator lenses for the rear lights, as well as a redesigned interior. According to Volvo, a total of 1800 changes were made.
Standard equipment was improved with remote central locking, heated & electrically adjustable mirrors, 4 airbags, power brakes with ABS and power windows being standard on every car. Trim levels varied for each market as did the equipment levels of the most basic trims. In the United States, the badging denoted the engine variant and to some extent the equipment level, whereas in Europe engine and options could be chosen individually. On all markets more powerful versions usually received better or upgraded standard equipment. The T5 and R were the series high-performance models.
First registered 1st April 2017 and with just 1 former keeper recorded, today the odometer displays a mere c. 37, 000 credible miles. Attractively attired in Metallic Green with a complementing Cream leather interior, the specification also includes automatic transmission and air conditioning. It is being offered at the sale from long-term ownership. It is believed to be a former government vehicle, perhaps supported by its specification and low mileage. It is being supplied with a history file that contains old MOT certificates, a collection of invoices and MOTs, the original owner’s wallet with the manual and service book and the old warranty certificate from the supplying dealer.
