Default just bought my first Volvo

Hi guys and gals. I'm new to the Volvo Company and cars, but I'm really excited to start driving my 850

I now own the Volvo 850, 1994 model

and you will never guess what

I purchased the car at 350,000km and paid 3000 Canadian certified.

Yup I'm kind of scared but I think it will be okay.

This car is in mint condition with only 2 owners.


Any comments or advice would be greatly appreciated.

THIS IS NOT MY CAR BUT IT IS IDENTICAL, I WILL HAVE A PIC SOON. I GET THE CAR ON FRIDAY

Well I guess I should have been more specific, but I'm not looking for any repair advice but mainly maintenance.

First time Volvo owner and I'm wondering what type of issues I should watch out for or minor maintenance I should do to save the long tern trouble.

Seeing my car has the 350,000 km I want to treat it like the princess it is right.


So tip and tricks really, if you have any?
