As disk said, it depends on the daughter and which transmission she's willing to drive. My mom drove our family's 900s for seventeen years and loved them. For the '91 you need to check on the head gasket (more prone to failure on '91-'93), the transmission fluid (should've been changed by now), and the usual battery, belts, and hoses. Also put the ABS through some use on the test-drive, because those rare occasions when it breaks (instead of braking) can get very pricey very quickly. The rest of the things are normal car things to look for. If there is looseness in the front end, expect to do some work. If the car bounces like a Buick, expect to do some work. If the brakes pulsate, expect to do some work.
Otherwise, nice car.
