Just Bought a 2006 S60 AWD, any gotchas?? S60

posted by  someone claiming to be GP Sandhoo on  Wed Aug 12 15:20 CST 2009 [RELATED]

Well,

bought it on a whim, been looking for a daily driver, have had 2 850s, but was leaning towartds a Acura TL, and maybe a 3 series BMW. Went it to check it out and ended up buying, ignored the advice to drive it for 30 mintues(kids were alseep in the van and wife was tired)

Details:
clean Carfax (YV1RH527962506232), was traded in at a Audi/Porsche dealer, dealer claimed that no records due to privacy issues. It is all wheel drive, 6 sped manual with Nav.

What are some of the first things to look out for and get checked?
Timing belt?
drove away for 15K

Thoughts? comments?

1985 Alfa Spider veloce 57K (trying to sell)
1973 Dodge D100 4 SPD Manual- keeping it forever
2007 Honda Odyssey, Family hauler

1997 850 5SPD totaled, 1995 850 sold at 190K miles
