Default 1998 V70r buyers checklist

Also posted in the performance section:

Hi Folks,

I'm going to see a 1998 V70r AWD Auto on Sunday with a view to buy, is there anything I should look out for that's specific to these particular cars, that is to help aside of service history, cambelts, bushes etc...?

Sitting sub 170,000 miles at the moment.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Kind Regards,

Ron

There's a buyer's guide in the Sales section, and others will no doubt add the extra bits you need to check concerning the AWD system, such as making sure the prop shaft is still there and there's no noise from it while driving under load.
