Purchasing a 92 965 (960 wagon)? 900 1992

Hi all. My first post here. I've owned several older Volvos. A 1975 244GL, a 1985 244Ti, and a 1990 744Ti. I'm thinking of buying a 1992 965 with 96k. I'm buying it from a local Volvo-only used car dealer. He's having it checked out by a local Volvo mechanic, and having a few things fixed. (Collapsed transmission mount, bad tire) I've read the FAQs associated with the 960s, and have talked to the mechanic about some of the problems I read in the FAQ. The timing belt was done exactly 30k ago. The rear main seals don't seem to be leaking. The ACC blows just fine under acceleration.

The guy's asking $5500, which I think is a good price. What else should I look for when I go to see it, and does $5500 sound like a good price?

TIA,

Scot Catlin
