If it’s auto, get the car nice and hot and see if it still changes properly. Volvo say the gearbox is sealed for life, this leads to missed transmission oil changes and a short life, they can start playing up around 100,000 I think. If you buy a good one, plan on changing the oil soon afterwards (hundreds of threads on here).
They’ve got the turning circle of the titanic, this is normal.

Also heavy cars, so check for suspension knocking indicating worn bushes.
cheers for that
