My 92 240 wagon is going to hit 200,000 miles in a month or three. I'm planning on doing a new timing belt, but what other preventitive maintainence stuff should I do? What does the dealership do every 50K? I'm in school so I can't afford to take it there. It starts, runs, drives, shifts and stops great. It passed the volvo dealership 150-point inspection nine months ago with flying colors, save for somewhat worn bushings all around and loose front wheel bearings.

Here's some major service done on the car by the previous owner:
Third brake light harness
Clutch and rear main 50k ago
Themostat and front seals about 50k ago
Blower motor, resistor and
Water pump at 190k

Everything works well...and I want to keep it that way! P.S.- It's a 5-speed wagon with ABS and leather, four new tires and four new Haakapellita snow tires on rims. And I got it for $2,000. Life is good.
