Default I bought another one !!

So i sold my 05 XC90 last November to buy a Galaxy and guess what i have just bought another 05 XC90 is there something seriously wrong with me 🤨 The bodywork is dent free with the odd little scratch the interior is shabby but no rips or tears etc but all in all she is a beauty with black paintwork and cream leather. Ok it has faults ie the message display is temperamental ie on off when it wants hopefully this isn't a cheap easy fix any ideas would be appreciated? Also there is no history of a cambelt change so thats a priority asap there is mention of excessive corrosion underneath which doesn't look that bad to me oh and the obligatory engine mounts need replacing
