Totally agree, I run only Chevron Plus in my 96 850 turbo--Premium is more Octane than needed at my altitude, 5-7,000 ft. The Volvo you are looking at sounds like a really good car. Note that the tranny (if auto) has no filter so flush evey 20K miles. I use Mobil 1 ATF. Here is a link to the simple procedure:

The volvospeed site is very useful for other maintenance issues.
