I found a '95 960 sedan with 145K miles for sale locally. The problem with it is that the owner was ran off of the road by a truck and into a ditch. The left front control arm broke, the sway bar link bent, and the left front fender got shifted rearwards slightly. The doors still close fine, but the gap between the hood and fender is really tight. The rest of the car is pretty clean and it seems to run well. Everything works. The insulation is crumbling on the wires that goes into the injector packs and I'm sure the timing belt is due to be changed. The guy wants $900 for it. Should I buy it? I'm pretty familiar with 960's. I have an 850 now but am thinking of selling it to go back to RWD.

Thanks in advance.
Dave
