Hey guys, My 96 850 platinum wagon died last week (water pump froze up, throwing timing belt) , so not I'm now looking for an ol reliable rwd volvo to get me around. I looked at a 94 940 sedan this evening and it ran like a dream! 209k miles, however was owned by a Volvo technician. Has had exhaust replaced already, and comes with brand new exhaust thats not installed just in case. Timing belt replaced at 200k, dont know much else about it, going back tomorrow to see all the records for it, but assuming that if was technician owned, then all should be in tip top. As far as i could tell, everything was in working condition, including heat, a/c, windows and fuel gauge. Even used only volvo oil filters. the family who owns it also has a s40 and c70 and 960, so it seems that their a Volvo for life family. They only want $1500 for it. Does it sound like a good deal? anything else i should look out for with the 940's? Anything specific to ask? Whats the water pump life like? Also, how simple are the 940's to work on? Looks like theres more than plenty room to work in the engine bay. any help is greatly appreciated!
Thanks, Weston.

P.S.- anyone interested in buying a 96 platinum wagon with blown engine pm me, make me an offer. MANY new parts!
