Default Considering a 2007 S60 T5

80K miles and they want 12K. It has a nice service history. No accidents. 2 drivers (1 lease, 1 owner).

However, looking at the CarFax:

The radio was replaced and computer repgrogrammed at 45K miles. Dealership says it was an electrical issue.

The turbo unit and seals were replaced at 67K miles.

The engine mounts were replaced at 73K due to "noise" according to the dealership.

Are these things "normal"?

Been a few days with no replies so I may as well share my thoughts. Nothing there sounds scary. Stuff happens. It seems like the previous owner was someone who would bring the car to the dealer whenever something felt "off". That's better than someone who just puts up with a problem. If everything appears to be good with it now, it is fairly safe to assume that it's good to go.

The turbo seems little odd. They should go longer than 67k. That said if that is all then there does not seem to be a real history of repairs due to abuse.
