Default Should i buy the 03' Volvo s60 2.5T AWD?

hi everyone

i'm looking to buy a 03' volvo s60 2.5T AWD. price is 9,995. i'm going to try to renegotiate the price down to 8000. it has 62,000 miles already on it. two owners, no erratic car fax history. i'm going to test drive it wednesday. any advice ? thank you

Phillip

Check legroom in the back and steering in tight parking or U turn. Otherwise I don't have any complaints about S60

thank you for the kind responses

before i go off to test drive the car tomorrow, i have one question. is the s60 even worth getting? i've heard that this car starts out good but finishes with so many problems. (almost every thread in this subforum talks about something erratic.) also, i found out that this car's suspension has been replaced twice within 7k miles. still worth it?

Thanks

Phillip

What part of the suspension was replaced twice in 7 months? Sounds like someone misdiagosed a noise or something

Don't forget most of people are here to look for solutions for their problems.There are many other Volvo owners that don't have any problems so they don't post. If you visit other car forums you will see that they are full of problems to.
