Just make sure that any parts that contain wires with the degrading insulation have been replaced. Those parts include wiring harness and ETA (also known as electronic throttle actuator or throttle body).
If they haven't been replaced and you buy the car anyway, get them replaced - you will save yourself a lot of time and frustration and maybe even some money.
Other than that, I like my 420 alot.
