Buying an 850R

hi guys,

my car (91 xj6) just died ad i'm in the market for a new car. both my parents have volvos, so i decided to get one too. i want an advice on this:

1996 850R, sedan, 193K Km, CAD$10,500. 2 sets of tires, tinted windows, loaded.

* is that a good value for money?
* is 200K km on the engine a big problem?
* what should i check (mecanically or otherwise) when i look at the car?
* any other advices welcome

anoter car i'm looking at, for comparison, is a 96 850 turbo wagon w/ 104K Km for cad$10.4. same price, 1/2 the miles. that's why i'm a little unsure about the first one.

thanks in advance,
vasilli
