1983 Mercedes 300TD Turbo-diesel Wagon - Great shape

Well written ad - I'm not a fan of white (especially a repaint from blue to white), but the maintenance appears to be well done and the price is in my range. I exchanged some emails with the owner he says he didn't put much miles on the car due to and accident in the fall so he doesn't know about oil consumption... hmmm - first yellow flag. I asked him about compression test results - if he has them it may tell a story of the engine.

Looking at these pics and description, what do you see as you 'read between the lines'.

UPDATE: mileage is 285K.
