Is used 850 worth considering? 850

I have owned 5 rear wheel drive Volvo, do my own maintenance and run them into the 250K+ mile range. I am going to look at an 850 turbo sedan for $3400.00 with 74K miles. The price seems right if it is in good condition.

First, does anyone know of any reason not to buy and 850 (since I believe this was Volvo first front wheel drive), second, is the front wheel drive make it a pain to work on, and third is there anything to be on the look-out for?


Thanks for any replies.

Gary
