Are there any glaring reasons to stay away from the 2002 v70 ?

I know that the XC had some pretty major reliability/mechanical issues in 2001-2002, but Iam not sure if the V70 is the same. I can't seam to find anything major on the web. Is there anything I need to look out for?

I'd rock one. You'll probably lose your ABS contole module sooner or later but nothing else that comes to mind.
