Thinking of purchasing an 850! 850

Potential trouble spots are automatic transmissions and air conditioning evaps. Make sure regular oil changes with synthetic oil. Turbos are pretty robust. Most common issue is leaking return hose, which requires new seals. They should be able to go the distance (several posters talk about 300K) but will most likely cost more to maintain than a 940.
