Hi Philip - this question comes up a lot. If you do a search here including any of the terms "condenser" "records" "transmission" "ABS" "buying" "bought" you will find some interesting posts. Personally, I bought an '95 850 turbo with all the maintenance records, didn't have the dreaded condenser failure, doesn't have the version of ABS module that fries, and is the last year you could read your own codes from the computer. I like it a lot. Above average maintenance, IMHO. Timing belt should be changed every 70K miles - otherwise you can lose the engine. Good luck. Don
