Hello All.

I currently own a 98 S70 with 135k miles and owned a 96 850 GLT Wagon.

I know my used Volvos but i dont know the in and outs of a S60.....

I know the S60 does not have a lot of rear space but I am looking for advice on what to look out for in a used one......

Good and bad model years.
Specific electricl, engine issues.
Throttle body, engine managment problems?
Any suspension issues with worn out sway bars?

My S70 has served me well and i have had a few issues with it but none that have put my check book in the red........ I really like the looks of the S60 and there are a ton available with 45000 to 70000 miles for reasonable prices.

ALL OPINIONS ARE APPRECIATED.........

Thanks!
