Semi-Newbie from Milwaukee

Once upon a time about 3 years ago I was the proud owner of a 1996 Volvo 850. As of May 13th I will again be another Volvo owner.

The purchase: 2001 V40 Wagon with 1.9 Turbo. Fully loaded. 107,000 on the clock. It needs a few hugs of love but in about a week it will be a hot commodity.
Orders of business: (1) New timing belt (2) Brakes (3) Axle seals where CV axles meet transaxle (4)Buff job

Anything I need to know about this car? Any regular problems or items I should keep an eye one?

Once upon a time about 3 years ago I was the proud owner of a 1994 Volvo 850 T5. As of March 2007 I was Volvoless and was on my two feet:(.

I am not privy to the S/V40s so jump over to the V/S 40 forum.
