It's funny we have a dealer next town over from me but I really do not see any working local. you think i would of seen one at least being trailerd more case ,deere and cat than anything else a few jcb but more of the big three.
It looks quite a bit like a New Holland
well i can assure you its a lot lot different than it its a lot more stronger than a nh the boom on the rear may seem to be close to nh but there are lot more chunky bits bigger rams and bigger pump the 1 thing i can moan about it its not as fast as a jcb on the backend but alot smoother but its a bit lite on the front end however the fron is like a loading shovel so it is a bit heavy around the 9ton area but a good allrounder il send more pics for you soon il get one of the inside and things to. its a 4 speed shift wich when you put in fourth its auto shift it changes for you and is pretty acurate. try one but dont judge it sraight away. I went from a jcb to it and id still have both but theres just somthing more about the volvo that just cliches it.

We've been pretty happy with the BL 70, bought one used from Ritchie Bros auction house in IL. Since it was used, we expected a few problems with it, but overall worked excellent..well...up until the vertical boom cracked in half. After replacing that, all good again.
We are looking for a concrete breaker to add to this machine..anyone have any recommendations on where to start?

Wow. Way to revive a 90 month old thread. 
Welcome to Heavy Equipment Aahz. You are probably far better off, and will receive more feedback, by starting your own thread in the attachments forum titled "Breaker recommendations for Volvo BL70"...or something like that.
