is this a good deal? V70-XC70 1999

Miles are a little high, but still sounds like a good deal for the $. Since you are getting it for such a low price, you should really consider an extended warranty. Extended warranties are necessary on all these newer high end cars. Volvo, Saab, BMW Mercedes, etc., it doesn't matter. They all suffer the same types of problems and failures. (Only some of the Japanese high end cars are better, they have a more localized and captured source for such parts. This increases their QC.)

Also, refer to some of the other responses for what to look for. Front and back torsion bars are common broken parts at that mileage.
