Thanks to all who responded.

Unfortunately, as I was getting ready to pick up this car and take it to my shop for a thorough pre-purchase inspection, my salesman notified me that the car had been sold (by another salesman) the previous day.

Thanks to the feedback and suggestions I got right here, I really felt I was prepared to buy this car and I was looking forward to negotiating the final deal and driving home with the V90. I spoke with the owner of the bookstore in NYC (the original lessee), and I was satisfied that the car had not been abused. And I was ready to purchase a (non-Volvo) extended warranty.

Oh, well. I doubt I'll ever see another V90 with such low mileage, but I'll keep looking. We'll probably end up with a V70 at some point, and in the meantime we'll enjoy our 945. I do regret Volvo's decision to drop the rear-wheel drive cars.

Again, all the help I received here on the Brickboard is sincerely appreciated.
