Volvo XC70 what to look for?

I am looking at possibly a Volvo XC70? What should I look for when buying? I was hoping to spend around £10,000-£11,000.

Thats great news. I have a new job which will take me from the Peak District to Heathrow about 3 times per month so needs to be comfortable for the commute. I was thinking the XC70 or a Jaguar XJ diesel for similar money.

We are a youngish couple so kids hopefully on the way soon and I think the XC70 will be much more practical.
