Just recently, in answer to a Member's inquiry as to the cost to purchase a replacement for his 240, one of our group made the observation that the best prices for inexpensive older Volvo cars can be found in the V70 and S70 lines. I had just recently noticed, too, in my perusal of the local Craigslist, that some very nice,clean,'low' mileage examples of these V and S cars can be had for literally give-away prices. Personally, I think they're pretty handsome cars, even if they're 12-15 years old. But, the question remains: What's wrong with them, especially since the ads invariably say 'good runner' and 'no rust'?
