looking into purchasing an 850/850 turbo S90-V90

I would take a look at either a 940 or 960/s90. From what I know (mostly from this board), 850's seem to have some pricey problems around the 100-150k mile range. The 900 series of cars including the s/v cars are in my opinion, the best of the volvo's. Unless you have an overwhelming need for fwd, stick with a rwd car. Many 960's can be had around 6-7000 with less than 100k on the clock. Not that hard to get them to 200k and you have a very nice ride to boot. Something to think about.

97 S90 with 184K miles still going strong
