Looking at a 97 850 GLT wagon, need some help with a few questions 850 1997


I'm in Mass. It was about 30-35 degrees yesterday. I'll follow up on the AC. Maybe I can get him to put it inside before I drive it again.

One small dent. Going to use that and the fan as leverage.

No check engine lights or anything else unusual that I noticed.

Temp gauge right at 3.

Timing belt done at 70K. Do these need to be done every 70K?

Tight suspension with very few rattles.

This seems to be a well-taken care of car. One female owner from a wealthy town. Most servicing at a Volvo dealer. I've driven a few 850's and S70's and this one drives the best by far....

Thanks for your help!

Jim
