Good deal? 89 240 Sedan 200

Saw this advertised locally (North-east).

89 240 sedan, only 130,000 kms. Owned by octagenarian, is in a shop and needs brakes and exhaust (maybe more?), so owner has decided to sell. Asking about $1200 US as is. Has apparently been undercoated a few times.

Had a quick look at it in the dusk: body looked good, no obvious rust nor serious dents; driver seat looks broken - inner side goes further back; looked like some shag carpeting had been added in the back??

Looking for a 240 as eventual replacement for my 92 240 wagon (getting up there mileage wise, though runs very well), and possibly as a first car for my 17 year old daughter.

Thoughts?

    Make sure you know to the best of your ability what the car REALLY needs and then talk him down from there. ;)

      130km. Great deal ! 200

      130km = 89000 miles. At that mileage, and if there is nothing MAJOR wrong with it....I would just give him what he wants for the car. Worth every penny!
