Thinking about buying 1992 740 Turbo Wagon???

I found a beautiful 1992 RED 740 Turbo Wagon...very beautiful car.

The car appears to have a ?Factory? Body kit with a sweet front spoiler with intergrated fogs.

What makes me wonder though is the fact the car is riding on 15in Steel Wheels instead of Alloy wheels. - I thought all late model turbos had alloy wheels

The car ran fine BUT had plenty of Turbo Lag...One PROBLEM, during the test drive i noticed white smoke coming from under the hood! I popped the hood and noticed the oil stick guage was dislodged and oil had spewed out from the filler tube...

What would cause that to happen?

The cars has @180,000 Miles...my 1988 240DL has @250,000 miles

Thanks
