2003 V70 2.4 NA. Purchased at about 145,000 miles. Maintenance at that point was "OK" but not the best. A few battle scars on the exterior. Did some front end work, fixed tailgate wiring and flushed fluids early in my ownership. (Was probably the first trans flush it ever had.) Now has about 220,000 miles. Runs and shifts perfectly. Have made several 800 mile runs between Dallas/Atlanta, fully loaded with cargo, 28-29 MPG at 75+ MPH.

Make sure you get two key fob as they're expensive. If one is missing, negotiate the price down about $400-500. Seriously.

Good luck.
