Looking to buy 850s, what to look for?
Hi everyone, I'm new to this forum and new to Volvo's in general. I am looking at buying a 96 850s wagon and was wondering if there is anything special I should look out for when I go look at the car? Any known issues I should keep an eye out for?
Thank you for helping a newb out

if the heater works
-front + rear wiper works
-heated seats work
- if the rear hatch springs are good
-if the rear hatch opens and closes smoothly
-if all the speakers work
-if the fogs work
-odometer, gas guage + horn work properly
+ the normal stuff (runs smooth, no frame rust, no black smoke on startup, leaks)
most of them are little things, but they add up
