All the smaller, now discontinued Volvos and that Mazda were built on the very same Focus platform, same suspension etc. As has been said Volvo offered their 5 pot petrol T5 and diesel D5 in their cars with their M66 gearbox and AW autos if you really must.
Good software available for them for greater engine outputs plus all sorts of other performance stuff if that is your bag....

Is 70k a major service for the T5 engine?
Cam belt or anything like that?
I recommend cambelts at 40k or 5 years on 5cylinder Volvos although Volvo will say 60-70k -I've had some seriously degraded belts with less than 50k on them before. Cambelt is a simple job on a T5 thanks to good access and well thought out design. ON a cambelt service I also recommend doing the tensioners, Auxiliary drive belt and the water pump - I'd also suggest that you use either a genuine volvo belt kit or one from Gates.Cam belt or anything like that?
