How much are they asking? You never mentioned the condition of
the interior, A/C, Power steering, braking system, electrical
system, etc.

I would consider the engine a throw-away given the lack of
attention the vehicle got (5 years, same oil?).  Buy it cheap,
flush the cooling system and replace the engine, then enjoy a
nice Westy, given nothing else is bad.

Just my 2 groszy.
