Is rod knock likely at 106K?

Thanks Chris!

I'll let you know how it turns out. The car looks really nice and would be a super deal. I'll see how low the owner can go. I figure that engine and installation would be about 3K. Is that a good estimate to use when haggling price. This car was owned by the dealers CPA (I am working with the dealer himself), has a brand new turbo and is at 106K (the interior is average). Wagons are very rare in NC, that are mint at least. Once in awhile one comes around but the price is usually super high. Same with 240 wagons here, they demand a premium, that's alright with me since I prefer the 700/900 series. The major frustration I've come across trying to buy a new wagon here is very unmotivated/ambivalent sellers. We found a good 95 940 wagon (had a few minor issues), but we couldn't ever get the owner to meet with us so my wife could test drive the car, go figure. This dealer has been pretty bad as well, I have been there 5 times to try and get to drive it (with the XC90 just out, a meager 92 sale isn't a priority).
