Hello, My name is Daniel Smith, and I'm considering getting a 2002 S60 2.4t AWD, and I had a couple of questions to ask. (tried searching, but couldn't find a definitive answer)

1: What should I look for when I go to test-drive the vehicle (My brother is a mechanic, and will be coming with me). I know i should ask about the timing belt and turbo, but is there anything else we should check out?

2: Is the AWD system reliable? I want an AWD car, and this fits perfectly, Imprezas are a bit too ricey for me.....

3: I'm going to be downsizng from a Lincoln Mark VIII....... What kind of gas mileage can I expect?

4: The blue gauges on the S60R are orgasmic..... Is there any way to get those gauge faces on my cluster?

BTW, the car is silver with charcoal leather, 5sp. Geartronic trans. (I've heard these can have probs, are they common?) and has 111k on the odo.

 

I checked out carurvey.org to get realistic reviews on the S60 I bought.They'll probably have a lot of answers to you questions already posted.Good luck to you.
