850 turbo wagon won't start-Please help-UPDATE 850

Here is the latest:

The car has been sitting for over a week now in the garage of a Volvo specialized mechanic who is willing to troubleshoot it. He's been trying to start the car daily multiple times and he said it worked fine except one time, when it wouldn't start. He tried again and it did start. Following the recommendations from this thread (thanks to all), I told him to change the PNP and ignition switches, which he did.
He told me yesterday that despite these changes, the car did not start on one occasion-similar symptom as before. So he thinks now it might need a STARTER MOTOR. My understanding is that if the starter motor is not good, then the engine would at least try to start, not turn the key and nothing happens.

What do you guys think? Please Please advise again. Thanks

Fred
