I'm sure it received routine dealer service at the mileage points but she rarely drove it and that isn't always a good thing.

I heard that the L7 was a problem car. It suffers form electrical issues and the engine is not that great as I Think (but maybe wrong ) that it is the Nikosil block that is a weak point. Again, I could be wrong about the years that engine went in.
Try asking here:
