advice? S70 1998

I picked up a 98 S70 GLT with 80K on it, and looking at the service records, it look sike they took care of a lot of the problems I've heard about prior to me buying it.

I've put 25K on it now, and I did have to have the AC evaporator (or whatever it is that is located in the dash) replaced. I bought the car in Jan, and never checked the AC (my fault) and come the hot weather it didn't work. After checking everything else they pinpointed the evaporator. Although I didn't buy an extended warranty they did give me a discount on the repair, but, when they put the new evaporator in, it too leaked immediately, so they had to put another one it. I was without my car for 4 days and I moaned & groaned, and the dealer ended up not charging me at all for any of the service.

Other than that I haven't had any problems with it and am happy.
