    Forget Carfax, it is the service history you need. If there is no history, keep looking. Also remember that Carfax does not cover all states and titles can be laundered by going through those states.
    The S60R is a very nice car, but, just like any used car, you need to trust the seller and have service history.

        In the twin cities, volvo dealerships do not share data. I can only assume that there is no national data base for volvos. If the seller does not tell you where the car has been serviced or have service recorts for inspection, well, that is a delima.
