I'm considering buying a 2007 S80 D5. I've found one with the specification i'm looking for, and have enquired about the service record. It seems to have been well looked after by the first owner, but the second serviced it at 80,000 miles, and it has only just now been serviced by the dealer at 110,000 miles (along with cambelt, w/pump, tensioners etc).

Should I walk, or is this larger gap tolerable? If there were loads around with the comination of spec, engine and gearbox that I was looking for, i'd leave it, but there aren't.

Thanks for any advice smile
