We've had a 745 Turbo for ten years and are considering a '99 V70 N/A wagon with about 80,000 miles on it. Our 745T has 255k on it and I've done most of my own maintenance. What are the good and bad points of a V70? Are there recalls? If so, what are they? What's known to break and what doesn't? I hear the electrical systems leave a lot be desired. Does that mean expensive stuff like computers die or is just nusance stuff like lightbulbs and switches. Is there any one year to NOT buy and another year to definitely consider?

Any help is appreciated.
