Salvage title --to buy or not to buy V70-XC70

posted by  someone claiming to be sweetonswedish on  Tue Dec 19 10:28 CST 2006 [RELATED]

I found a salvage title 98 V70 92k AWD wagon, asking $3k (haven't tried to get them down but maybe it's possible). It does need some work--it seems from what they say just the PNP switch and to get the AWD going another drive shaft, although it's not necessary. They have some records from the previous owner, and say the salvage is from being hit in the rear of the car.

I usually stay away from salvage titles...but does this sound even worth looking into? My mechanic can check it out for $80--he said usually to just stay away from salvage titles unless you plan to drive the car into the ground.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Christina
