Sorry folks, I wasn't trying to start a pi$$ing match! Here are my reasons for the "pricey" comment.

1; Exterior rust present in two areas, w1th no mention of undercarrage integrity.

2; 106,000 miles with the motor never opened. To some this may be just great, to me this is 10K-15K in motor and ZF work just waiting to happen, sooner than later.

3; All new dash switch components, yet turn signals do not operate, smacks of previous and current electrical issues, in the steering column AND under the dash.

4; Dash cracked = sat out in the elements for a good period, lending even more concerns about point #1.

As a side issue, now remember I am just posting "my" concerns, look at the far right top engine photo. Now look to the gasket material of both the valve covers, and the intake manifold, no discoloration. The block surface below the intake is bright and clean as a whistle, this motor may not have been "opened" in 106,000 miles but it HAS been out of that bay.
