1992 300 SE on Ebay-Need advise.

I just bought this car on Ebay:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2472984120

Any advise as to what to look for before I make payment and pickup the car would be appreciated. Its hard to believe that it only has 130,000 miles based on the condition of the seats but seller has some service records that seem to confirm the mileage.
Are there any major trouble areas on these cars? Any engine or rust problems? Seems to be a southern car. Wha t kind of mileage should I expect? Frank Barett's Guide on Mercedes states that the S class in the best long distance car ever made and one of the safest. Kelly Blue Book lists trade-in value as $8000 so maybe I will be able to get it reconditioned for the difference.
