off-topic. possible 450sl purchase - need help

I just came from driving this car and could use some advice. I have posted in the sl forum, but have always got such good advice here I thought I would try as well.

113000 miles. Owner claims it has been in his family almost since new. There is some rust under the car (not wheel wells but just in front and in back of them). None I could see elsewhere.

Sub-frame was re-done under the recall. Motor sounded strong and car drove smoothly. Nice looking car, new top.

I believe there is a leak somewhere in the exhaust system. Just sounded odd.

Steering wanted to pull right. When you would start to go right a little it would try to take off that way.

AC not working. Although air blows through the center vents it is not warm or cold. I noticed some greenish stuff around what I think is the servo.

The fan runs all the time. He unplugs it in the front, but it runs always when plugged back in.

Please help with what these issues could be, and what they would cost to repair. I think I can get this car cheaply. What price would you suggest as being too good to pass up?

Thanks!
