$5200 for a 1985 500SEL in EC a good price?

I have found a local 1985 Mercedes 500SEL 4dr in EC for $5200. It looks very nice, 100% rust free. The dealer (specializes in European cars), said it runs great and it has fairly low miles (was unsure, but I did not get him to go out and look), but it has a clunking sound from the front suspension. He said he thinks it may be a loose bolt, or some bushings required. If it is the bushings, how much does it normally cost to have this repaired? I know that for $5200 I could buy a very nice 81-85 300SD, which I will probably do, but this 500SEL is a very nice car and does deserve considerations.

Does anyone here have a 1984-1985 500SEL?

Thanks for any information.
