Looking at buying a 98 V70 V70-XC70



i'm a 240 guy when it comes to Volvos & i'm looking for a solid wagon... for the life of me, i can't find a 90 or newer 240 wagon locally...

But there is a 98 V70 with 200k, that looks solid physically & drives nicely. I'm an ICAR collision guy by trade, that doesn't make me a mechanicial genious but i can tell it has never been hit, let alone painted over... It has been dealer serviced by one owner & i have seen the paperwork. It doesn't smoke or burn oil.. I'm only looking for something to put maybe 40 miles on it a day, if that...

so my question is, before i make the jump, what should i look for in the paperwork or in general on the vehical? Any quirks? whats the life/miles of a V70 drivetrain? any & all advise is welcomed!

Thanks!
~Matt
