Looking at a 2001 V70 T5 w/ 5Spd V70-XC70 2001

9k for an '01 seems ok with all that it has. The lack of miles and the towing package makes me wonder if somethings fishy. Obviously you'll drive it and find out if its worth it, but check everything yourself. ETM and ABS history is huge, so is checking all the fluids. If you bring a scanner, do you have one that can tell if all the diagnostic tests have been completed? I can't remember what else signifies that the codes have been wiped. It sucks getting a car and 200 miles finding out it has a CEL on...

I'd also ask about how long ago the clutch and the T-belt were replaced. Remember to pull the oil dipstick after a test drive so the engine's hot (and still runnning) to check on the crankcase pressure. Puffing means you'll likely have to clean out the flame trap soon..
