What about service records for recent work done? I mean, just because the car has only 70k on the clock doesn't mean it doesn't need work. It's a 25 year old car. Rubber parts are the usual suspects and the costs to replace them add up real quick even if you DIY. I purchased a one owner 1990 300SE with 59k miles on it 5 months ago. It's a great car, but updating everything has cost well over $5,000 so far and I've done most of the work myself. And I'm not done. I don't think I will ever be.
