let's put it this way...w116's become more rare every day (seeing as one of mine is going to the junkyard soon). That's fairly low miles and none of the stated problems are unexpected or difficult to fix.
Can always offer less and see what happens.
otherwise bottom line is whether the car is worth $3000 to you. I've got 2 300SD's from 1979 both with in excess of 240K miles on the engine and tranny. One failed due to operator error, the other still runs great though the transmission has something to be desired. Assuming this car has been well maintained it should have at least 75-100K left on it which few cars purchased for $3K can do.
