Okay - took it for a spin. Rode great, all the lights (SRS, ABS, Check Engine...etc.) worked fine. No musty smell, no condensation on any of interior gauges. Engine looked good, no apparent rust underneath/inside door/trunk. Actually don't know what "rockers" are so I don't know about the rust there...

Problems: Radio doesn't work (it's a stock and it seems to me that all volvo stocks pretty much stink), slight staining/fading on the fabric of the seats (front and back), one brake light out (to be fixed before sold) and (and this is my biggest concern) slght smattering of rusty/orange tiny spots along all 4 doors. Real faint and not noticible until you look up close. But, once noticed....stick out to me. Oh yeah, and no heated seats!

Like I mentioned before, he replace brakes all around, the water pump, distributor cap and rotor, timing belt, some other kind of belt I don't remember, the windshield and changed the oil. Also said if I get an afterarket stereo, he'll install for no charge.

Said he'd give me $800 off the asking price so it'd cost me $5K.

Comments? Suggestions?

thanks again,
amy
