Have a full tune up done-
flush all fluids- brake/coolant/power steering/etc
replace all filters- oil/air/fuel
Change Oil
Valve adjustment
Check compression, pressure test cooling system for any leaks, inspect for oil leaks, and any other fluid leaks.
Check brakes
If the car is in relatively good sound mechanical condition, you may have yourself a deal on this car. but its hard to tell by just looking.
Cosmetically the car looks good. Looks like the door handles have been painted to match or are severly faded- cant tell from the pics. the paint looks healthy.
Being a little on the OCD side, after having the car up to spec mechanically- I'd fix the dent, replace the missing and faded lower door strips, bring the door handles back to black, upgrade to european headlights, black out the grille insert, throw on a set of 16" MB 8-hole replicas, and polish and wax the paint back to that gorgeous gloss that lies within the paint finish. But thats just me.
