What exactly should I look for on the seats?
Cheers

If you have a look at this link (sorry, it's an Audi site!) it will give you an idea of what an ISOFIX fitting looks like. You should be able to feel the two brackets onto which the child seat clicks.

They won't be visible so you'll need to squeeze your hand in between the seat base and the seat back and feel if they are fitted. But if not, it's almost certainly a five minute job to fit them and your dealer should be able to find them in the parts list and quote you a price.

EDIT. A quick check of the Accessories catalogue for the 70 series shows that Volvo say that the ISOFIX cannot be fitted to the S/V/C 70 or 850. But as my 03 C70 has it as standard perhaps they enabled ISOFIX fittings at some point during production. The catalogue doesn't have a date on it. So best to check with your dealer.
