I assume you're talking about the '98-00 S70 sedan (since the current S70 is a station wagon and therefore not eligible for classification)?

If you're talking about the '98-00 S70, it's essentially an 850 with slightly rounder sheet metal, IIRC. The 850 (93-97 GLT) is already classified in ITS, but I don't know if there are any currently being raced.

As a Volvo enthusiast, I'd love to see more Volvos on the track. However I doubt that the S70 will ever be competitive in ITS. Among other drawbacks (lbs/hp, fwd), like the 850, it has limited fenderwell space. This means that 205 is the widest tire that will fit.

Actually, the S70 is the sedan and the V70 is the wagon (variant).
