The price seems more than fair for the car. Are there any other items or issues with these cars that I should be wary of? I'll be using it as a daily driver and only drive about 7 miles total per day.
What are the MPG's on this car?

Just the normal problems dealing with 20 year old parts.....
I get 15 in town and 18-20 on the road with my 560SEL, drop 1mpg for A/C. Less if I don't drive like an old man....
