Don't know about what it's worth. I paid $1800 for one almost two years ago with 154,000 miles, bad paint and a host of minor ills. That was probably too much, but I love the car and have since put about 10,000 miles on it (and another $1800 into it). Yours ought to be worth as much; a bit more if you replace the half-shaft and timing belt, and fix the worst of the leaks. Good luck.

What do you mean by being suspicious?
As for major mechanical issues, I would say that a smoking car was pretty serious. Maybe not expensive, but I still couldn't use it for work. It bacame an an "out of sight, out of mind" thing.
