eyeing this replacement for ailing 940 V70-XC70 1998

posted by  someone claiming to be auto knucklehead on  Tue Oct 16 00:41 CST 2012 [RELATED]

my 1994 940 wagon has given great service. what made it the perfect car for me is :

1) giant cargo area- i haul books and shelves to bookfairs
2) amazing ability to whip a u turn on city streets
3) just goes and goes

it needs replacing and I see a 1998 v70-xc70 wagon for sale with absurdly low mileage (less than 40k miles).

It's not an easy life to be my car, lots of city driving, hauling heavy loads, indifferent service habits...

Am I going to be pining for a 940 if I make this switch?
Is less than 40k mileage on an older car as nice a combo as it seems?

No aptitude for any involvement with car other than use it and buy gas. any thoughts?

thanks
