Default 2010 XC60 S 2.4 D5 DRIVe 176bhp-Opinions please

Good Afternoon,
I’ve been looking for a XC60 for about 2 months now and seen a few all of which haven’t been as described!
Anyway ones popped up in the shape of the above model in terra bronze all be it in standard S spec but has heated seats just had cambelt and its got 98000 on a 10 plate with 5 Volvo services and 3 independent. It’s very clean with the exception of a couple of nicks to the front bumper and scuff to the rear bumper black plastic part!

Best price I could get was £7750 with 12 months MOT and 3 Months Warranty!

What do you guys think.....expensive?

Opinions would be much appreciated?

Thanks

Default Pays your money, takes your wares.

No complication of AWD or autobox to worry about which is a plus
Poverty spec S model could be harder to sell on in the future.
Nice colour.
As with all cars that age give the do a good inspection or take a knowledgeable friend.
Do your research to check comparable prices, check car tax cost on that model.
Try to buy with your head and not your heart, lots of other good cars at that price.

Anything to look out for it does have a 3 month warranty!
Car tax is £195 for 12 months.

I am no expert but at that age with service history you should be ok
Damp passenger footwell due to windscreen bonding problems and water ingress,this can lead to electrical probs and smells.
Radiator corrosion, not to expensive to do, but previous neglect could cause major engine problems.
Clutch replacement is not cheap and could fall anytime after 100k.
Leave budget for tyres and brakes and enjoy if you buy.
