RE: Buying a 1992 740 - 200k miles, Am I Nuts?
I just aquired a 91 740 with 230K and I have put another 20k and it runs incredible! The owner had it serviced by a volvo tech and it has all Volvo parts on it, even the oil filters where volvo.I know that this is the most important thing when buying any Volvo.Make sure that it has had a Volvo or Mann oil filter.This will be a good indication on how it was mantained and that the timing belt,trans,diff,brake fluid,etc have been serviced properly. I have a goal to reach 500k before doing any major work on it.

I bought my 90 740 with 236k on it....was told I was crazy. It has given me another 32k in a year and a half with only minor problems, most of which I've repaired myself. Service it regularly, take care of the 'little issues' right away and I'm sure you'll get a lot of life out of it.
