Hello everyone...

My Father is looking into getting a 2000 S70 he found off Autotrader.
Could people give some advice on what to look for?
Things that he would not know about that we should look for...?

Thanks so much,

- Jim

Tell him to give preferences to private sellers over the brokers who are trying to sell auctioned cars. He must have maintenance history, without it it is a crap shoot.
The Tbelt gets changed at 105K intervals for 2000.

A GLT or T5? Does he like to go fast? Pass cars on country 2 lane roads a lot? Flush the tranny every 25K miles? If not, get the GLT.
