Does it matter if 02 ARC has only oil change each 10K?

Hi, all:
Thank you all for the answers on my previous question on the 02 Arc I was looking at.
I have my last concern here:
The dealer selling the car has no records of the car. The car has 43k miles now. Local SAAB dealer provided me the records of 10K, 20K and 30K service. There is a sticker for oil change at 40K on the windshield. so I am really not sure the oil change had been done at 5K, 15K, 25K, 35K or not. I heard that Arc's V6 engine is less prone to sludge failure than the 2.3L engine. So my question is that: Does it matter if 02 ARC has only oil change each 10K? Is 10K oil change good enough for the 3.0L engine or I should look for another car to play safe?
Thanks.
