Default Couple of T4 questions

Hello, might have a chance of a 2000 plate V40 t4.
Can anyone tell me what realistic mpg I should expec?

How much does it cost to tax?

What problems should I look out for?

When does cambelt need doing?

The car looks mint and has full Volvo history and has just over 80k on the clock.

And finally, what did I ought to be paying for it?

Cheers, Ant.

Depending on how much you use the loud pedal you might achieve 25 around town 35 overall

£205 or "245 depending on when it was registered

Have a read up plenty of topics nothing major

Cam belt - As Fat boy Slim says "right about now"

As little £ as possible
