First question to ask yourself, Do you need AWD? The answer is probably no, so why look at the XC. The price should not be the determining factor. It was nice that the owner defered the Tbelt an extra 5,000 miles. I wonder what else he defered?
So long as your 240 is still running, you do not have to rush into anything. The plane Jane V70s are good cars like the 240, IF they have been maintained.
$3500 is a good price for a 1999. Just remember, that in that price range you will probably have to spend an additional $1000 to get it into trustworthy shape. The O2 sensor is no big deal, but it also needs to have the flame trap replaced and all of the vacuum elbows. Dealers don't do that kind of work because they make more money if the rear main seal blows.
