Kudos for Oliver. He did a really great job highlightling the 850 big "querks". Rear spring bumpers come loose, front motor mounts fail, front shock bushings wear out, climate control temp sensors get dirty, throttle bodies need cleaning, camm sensors go bad, etc, etc, etc. You'll find a good one if you keep looking and if it's been kept up well and not abused you'll get a real bargan. Just make sure the owners teenages didn't use one to learn to drive. The "sport" tranny mode is too much tempation for a young driver.
