Rob Mmm that is a good looking example. @OldnDecrepit was looking for one in this colour too. don't know if he wanted a manual or an auto.
OldnDecrepit Yes it's what I'm looking for but the price is too much and I'd prefer an auto. Manual gearshift and arthritis in my left wrist don't make for a happy combination. Btw the color is gold not orange.
Rob It is a little more than i want to pay for one too I think. I like the gold, but colour is not a great concern to me, in fact i would probably have a white one if i had a lineup to choose from.
PaddlerEd Saffron Gold is the correct name... Give me an aubergine one with those wheels and I'd be a happy man...
Ex850R I like a saffy wagon , in a c its black black black only like some in the thread on VS I linked you to Rob , how your car sits.I reeeeaaaaallllyyyyyy want What I think is Cosmic Blue Metallic , the bright sparkly one like BMW petrol blue or the one Mazda has now but brighter , I don't think we got it here though..... I will drop in to the Lebanese car crash shop near me somwrine as they have a black convert sitting outside.
OldnDecrepit Rob Yes the other one is an auto but I don't want a black or grey interior. Another issue with the first one is that there is no sunroof. It's not that I'm hard to please but....
Rob @spac found it http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/st-kilda/cars-vans-utes/1998-volvo-c70-coupe-amazing-condition-/1029351409
Rob looks like the purple one has sold http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/SSW-Alloy-Wheels-suit-Volvo-C70-Jaguar-S-X-XJ-Ford-Focus-Mondeo-19-5x108-/141124186067?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item20dba82fd3
Vee_Que I would think they would go down in price if they need to sell it. Looks good but not sure who has serviced it.
Spac Rob;4252 wroteI am really tempted to get a convertible. Only because i haven't had one of those. I dunno man... I hate the bloody things at the best of times, and a first-gen C70 is not a well-executed convertible.
Rob key word being tempted. not convinced. I might just go out on a limb yet and buy a newer one. I would be very happy to have a convertible if it had a tin top.
Spac Still looking, Rob? There's a decent looking auto coupe on the Cold Ghost for $5k ono. On gumtree. It's an outside chance, but there is the possibility of me swapping my 244 rally car for a purple coupe. Will likely know after the weekend...
