FAQ WARNINGS about buying a 960/S90???? S90-V90

posted by  someone claiming to be carmist on  Fri May 13 08:43 CST 2005 [RELATED]

What's the deal there? I am looking at a 98 V90 with 114K that seems to be in great shape. All the 5K intervals are stamped in the maint. book, about 60% by a Volvo dealer and 40% by one indie shop.

I am thinking of replacing my 92 940 with 206K. Folks posting here are generaly positive about their 960s (versus for example the S80 forum) but when I looked at the FAQ section on buying used 960/90s it was nearly all BAD!!!

For close to the same price, I could get a 98 V70 with 109K, or an 00 V40 with 103K. What's the current mood here, should I avoid the V90 like the FAQ advises?

Thanks in advance for your opinions/experiences.

Calvin; 92 940 (206K);99 SAAB 95 Sportwagon (107K);00 Honda Odyssey (102K); and previousy 240, 245, and 760
