I concur, the OEM hoses last almost forever!

My 95 850 has about 251k. All original hoses except for the bottom radiator hose and one reservoir hose (which turns out didn't replacing). All still look good. During my ownership, I replaced one radiator hose on my 1990 240 in 300K! Apparently, Volvo OEM hoses are great on all the older Volvos...

My one recommendation would be to consider replacing your heater hoses and take a thorough look at your reservoir tank. I would do the same, but since my car is no longer my DD and I'm not sure how long I will keep it, I am not spending the money on those hoses unless they really need it.
