Volvo Repair: 1999 C70 Reliability?, window regulators, volvo c70

Question
Hello,
I'm thinking of buying a 1999 Volvo C70 convertible but I'm wondering how reliable they are.  This one has 58,000 miles and looks in really nice condition, they are asking $12,600.  I commute a long distance (100 miles round trip a day) and am wondering how reliable this car might be for me?
Thanks,
Kevin

Answer
Kevin, personally I would stay away from them.  They have lots of quirks and when they get older things start falling apart.  The tops suck, the window regulators go bad and its a 750 dollar repair.  They also have a terrible ride.  Nots a smooth ride like all other Volvos do.  I would look for a S70.  They are more reliable and not that bad on maintenance and repair.  If you can find a nice 98 with low miles, that would be your best bet in my opinion.   Good luck.  Roger
