Purchasing S40

I'm purchasing a 2008 S40 this week. $4400, 133K miles. Used car dealership. Had a PPI done onsite with Pomcar. Got an excellent rating. Was curious if anyone has any thoughts/comments/words of wisdom (or caution lol). I really love the car. Have been looking for a while. They are extremely hard to find...
