2007 Volvo C70

The 2007 Volvo C70 is a great modern convertible. One of the most ingenious things about this car is the folding mechanism which retracts the hardtop roof.

Although this process can seem a little lengthy when you're trying to put the top up in the rain, the amount of care and precision that went into the engineering of the folding roof is truly astounding. The result is a retractable roof that does not consume as much space as some of its hardtop competitors, and one that does not leak at all, a fault that has plagued other similar cars.

The C70 comes only with the inline five turbo engine that is also in many other Volvo automobiles, and it gives this convertible enough pep to live up to its sleek styling, and attractive looks.

The 2007 Volvo C70 is a great choice for someone who wants a sporty convertible, while still buying a car that is safe and well made, two things that Volvo excels at.

2006 Volvo C70

The 2006 Volvo C70 is Volvo's little convertible that could. With a company that is renowned for making high quality automobiles, the C70 does not disappoint. It is a great looking car and manages to look nearly as sexy with the top up as it does with it down.

This should probably be the visual benchmark that all convertibles have to live up to. The car is nice and quick, it uses the same 2.5l turbo engine that is in both the S40 and the V50.

One of the best things about this Volvo is everything you see once you get inside it. In recent years, this car maker has been gaining a reputation for some of the best cabins in the business, with great dash configuration and styling.

This car shares its insides with the same design for the S40, and this is clearly one that works. The 2006 Volvo C70 is a great car from a great company!
