A lot of the problems that come with old age in a car are probably related
to heat and heat cycles. I'm betting that if this has been kept indoors or
at a stable temperature, hardly run, and out of the sun, it's likely in
pretty good shape. Maybe not as good as it looks, but a lot better than one
with high mileage.
