Considering purchase of 2004 XC90

Post by jacobharding »

I am considering purchasing this xc90 from a friend for $2000. It only has 91k miles and has been very well maintained with all records. It has slight paint damage to drivers door but other than some other small superficial blemishes the only thing that I can find wrong with it is the rear wiper is not working.
I'm thinking the price is good just wanted to see if anyone out there had any advice as to what else to look for.
Thanks.

I am not an expert mechanic, but I will attempt any repair. Worst case scenario is I screw it up worse than it was.

Uhhhhh Ya, you did write $2000 right. He is practically giving that car away at that price; it is worth much more than that. He must be a good friend.

Help keep MVS on the web -> click sponsors' links here on MVS when you buy from them.

Also -> Amazon link
. Click that when you go to buy something on Amazon and MVS gets a cut!

Would your friend be angry with you if you had the door paint repaired for $500 and sold it as-is for 6K ? 8-)8-)8-)
