About the car: Volvo XC70, 2007-2016

The V70 XC name became XC70 from model year 2003, and Volvo produced the model until 13 May 2016. In 2012 it received a minor facelift.

The roof rails of the XC70 were optional, black only, with the XC lettering. The car in our fitting has raised roof rails, and the roof bars attach to them, not directly to the roof. The Menabo box sits on the roof bars, so before you order, check whether your car has roof rails.
