Hi All,

Been reading the postings on brickboard for a while. You guys have kept my '92 240 with 98K miles a dream car.

I just purchased a weekender for running up to the mountains in Arizona from Phoenix, a 1995 850 turbo wagon with 93K. My volvo shop checked it out and gave a thumbs up. It was a tame soccer moms car and runs fantastic.

Can someone recommend a list of services I should invest (do it yourself and shop stuff)to make sure this fun ride is as trouble free as possible. It didnt have service records and the shop said timing belt has not been done. So that is first on my list. What else should a person do when making a purchase such as this (i.e, fluids flushed, shocks, ect) Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
