Should I buy an 850 t5 wagon

Most of these cars are very good, if they get the appropriate maintenance. Most of the tranny horror stories are due to lack of fluid changes, lots of A/C problems are due to not changing the cabin filter.

Search the board, you will find lots of tips for what to look for when buying one of these cars. A good one is easily good for 2 - 300k. The 96 & 97 models have the best track record. Early S70s are good also. AWD has been troublesome.
