Default good deal or bad deal?

1992 940 GL. This is the ad...

LOADED LOOKS AND RUNS EXCELLENT AUTO ABS AIR BAGS SUNROOF WHITE WITH GREY INTERIOR GETS 35+ MPG CLEAN TITLE A VERY SAFE AND RELIABLE CAR $995 OBO CALL (503)

So under KBB values let's not call it 'excellent', but let's say it's 'good'. I know it has 230k. And has no problems. What can I except from it. And what future repairs may it need?

That is a pretty good deal.
Depending on service history will depend on what it needs.

I have said this before but we have one that comes into the shop with over 800,000 miles on it.(No not a typo either really 800,000 miles.)

Well the car was sold last night. From the time I found the ad to the time it sold was very short. I called this morning to come check it out. How upsetting...

As long as I'm weighing in-- seems like if it isnt rusty, it could have no engine and be still be worth 995 bucks. Where I am, a 92 could be RAVAGED with rust. Thats why I went to Virginia to buy my '89!! Dave
