Re: Buy or run?
It's a timing BELT. It should be replaced (water pump at same time) by 100,000 miles. It costs $700 - $1200 to replace.
The auto should be flushed every 50,000 miles - flushed by a flushing machine to get all the fluid - and be sure they use ATF+4 - runs approx. $200.
I'm just giving you things to expect. If they fix the other issues, you should be okay.
I'd change the oil as soon as I got it (so then you know when it was changed and what is in it, and do the wires and plugs (get aftermarket wires) - stop in if you get it...
