By "bad" service records, do you mean oil changes outside the standard intervals? that could affect the warranty.
Fortunately by '06, the PCV system was sorted out (we think) + the turbo is the good one (TD04). So the 2 big issues with the older 4 cylinder 9-5s are mostly fixed... that said, you never want a car that is running on inadequate oil changes... if you're worried, get it checked for sludge to ease your mind... unless the oil changes were way too long, you'll probably be ok, and then keep it on full synthetic every 5k from here on out...
