1998 volvo s70 clutch feels like there is no Pressure/resistance S70 1998

So I went to go test drive a 1998 volvo s70, same exact car my dad has. I stall at first as it catches different than my dads. It has 89000 miles vs my dads 106000, not a big difference. He said he had the pressure plate recently done. Anyway as I press down on the clutch pedal it seems almost too easy. In my dads car there is some resistance. I was wondering if there is a problem? It goes straight down with little resistance in the car I just test drove.

The other thing is on the timing belt it says timing belt @ and then has the mileage crossed out. I ran a carfax and the last mileage was in 2001 about 56k and he said it was off the road for a couple of years. It drove fine and didn't slip but the timing belt mileage cross out and the clutch pedal made me weary. Also the e brake went up pretty high.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
