Hints on what to look for on used V90 S90-V90

posted by  someone claiming to be V70driver on  Fri Jun 20 03:11 CST 2008 [RELATED]

Hello folks,
I will look at a used V90 at the Metairie, Louisiana, Volvo dealer. I have looked through some of the previous messages on this board and wonder if someone could summarize for me (or warn me) of some of the pitfalls to look for on these cars. I am familiar with the normal used car problems:

1. Any records of previous maintenance?
2. Was this a flood car, any silt under the carpets?
3. Previous owners use it to transport pigs?
4. Do belts and hoses look fresh, signs of decent maintenance?
5. Rust!
6. Any evidence of wrecks
7. Normal dangers of used cars.

Thanks for your advice!
