I'll just add that we have a 1995 GLT wagon (non turbo) with 71K miles
and 1998 S70 T5M with 68K miles and maintenance and repairs have been
about the same for both. I would not call one more reliable then the
other (both have done pretty well, too). Now, the 142 I learned to
drive on (purchased new by my parents) was unreliable in comparison to
my cars (I should mention that Dad felt cars should come with the hoods
welded shut and never looked under there).

If the 99 is a GLT then I'd go with it (since it has a light pressure
turbo and will be pleanty fast).
