Default Buying a volvo c30

Hi, I'm viewing a 2007 volvo c30 2.0 se diesel tomorrow and its due a service.

I was wondering if anyone could give an idea of what type of service it will need being almost 7 years old and having done 77,000 miles?

when the timing belt needs changing?

If there are any things i might need to look out for? Any help or information would be much appreciated

Thanks John.

I have had my 2011 for a bit over 3 years and have about 101k miles on it. I have had all the maintenance done at the dealer for the first 60k and have them do it every 10k after that. I use all synthetic oil because with as much as I drive, I don't want to be in for oil changes all the time. When I flipped to 100k miles, I received a notice in the mail stating I should get the timing belt changed. Not sure yet if I will, but it's almost $1000 to do it. Have had no problems with my 2011 and we use it for everything except hauling lumber.
