Looking at many 2007 - 2010 C70s online, I don't see a spare shown except for one car that has it in a bag, in the trunk. I see there's a panel that hides the jack. Trunk space it tight because of the hard-top but did these come with a spare? There's a tire inflator or repair kit I've seen. I'll be looking at four C70s in the next couple of weeks.

    The spare tire was an added cost option. Standard was the sealant. Only a donut style spare fits into the tire well and the jack is completely screwed down to fit the space.

      Thanks Klaus. I have four C70s I'm looking at with the intent to purchase one within the next two weeks. There's the possibility of a fly-and-drive and I'd like a spare, jack, etc. May go to Ebay and have it shipped to the dealer.

      I've noticed that Carfax reports that most of the C70s I'm looking at have been in a "slight accident, cosmetic, no airbag deployment" according to carfax. More than any other car I've shopped.

      About half have also had their ECU reprogrammed, some a few times, early in their life. Possible firmware upgrade I'm assuming.

      Neat cars, daughter is excited. (Me too.)

      Erwin
