For 2006 the Tbelt is between 105-120K or 10 years (2016). The 5 speed autobox is much better than the 2001-2002.

If it is a Volvo dealer, have them show you the maint history. They can print it off if it was serviced there. If it is not a local trade in, have the car sent through the inspection process, normally a $100 fee but should be free for them. Ask about a very cheap 12 months guarantee, 30-90 days is usually free. It should have a fresh oil change. It is old enough to have antifreeze flushed and brake fluid flushed.

Make sure it is using synthetic motor oil. That keeps the PCV system clean.

If you daughter doesn't like it...
