Hello everyone! I am not very common with posting on this group but I read the posts very often, so I would like a little help from you... I come from Croatia (I think most of you don't even know where that is, it's near Italy and Slovenia:). For quite a long time I am searching to buy a Volvo 850 T-5R. My dad had two Volvos (200 series) and from that time I fell in love with these cars. The thing is that today I found a yellow T-5R in the ad. I called a man and he said the following about the car condition: the body (i thing that's the english word) has 360.000 km (in miles I think that's 225.000 miles) and the engine (second, the first one "blew up") has 180.000 km (112.500 m). he sais the car is in decent condition (everything is working except the air condition). i am meeting the guy today so I will know everything else. he wants 7000 USD (in EUR of course) for the car.
S O P L E A S E tell me the common reliability issues on this car. I am going to do a standard check with the mechanic but i would like to know what special things to look out for.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH
p.s. i was writing very fast cause I am at work so sorry about the spelling mistakes, if there are any:)
