On a unibody car that can be a simple thing such as jack marks on the frame rail or it can be as bad as a replaced 1/4 panel...I was a frame inspector for a couple of years for Daimler /Chrysler financial....

The fact that the seller didn't disclose the information has caused me to loose interest in the car already. There are so many cars for sale, why take a chance on something like "frame damage".

Are Volvo S70's unibodied? Yeah I was lookin at a volvo...so sueME [patriot]

Well, I just didn't want you to miss out on a deal...Such as an SUV with a trailer hitch that was welded on instead of being bolted on would be "frame damage"...You're right though, why chance it...

Yes, the S70 is unibody....Is this a T5 perhaps?... [Wink]

Sorry its an s60 that I was looking into...and its an AT 5 cyl. Located in LA though so I don't think I'ma gonna pursue it.

Found a 97 Audi A4 with 33,000 miles on it. Waddya think?

The S70 T5 is a turbo model, high 14's second car....

A4's are nice, but from my experience, burn oil and are expensive to work on as far as parts and maintanence....
