sounds like a bad maintenace history to me...my advice change for a better one and avoid the turbo's...i have just ditched asimilar milage 940 turbo due to insluable engine issues...

my 850 2.5 20 valve has more miles than yours and is excelent...probably one of the cheapest running cost cars i have ever owned...i think the turbo cars just stress the engines too far for long term reliability unless you want to be doing frequent and expensive maintenance (although they are a hoot to drive) - no such thing as free dinner!
