Timing chain shouldn't be an issue

Not at that mileage. Also, as far as I know, it has the better, hardened balance chain gear, which is an improvement over the 91/92. I'd be darn nervous about buying a car sight unseen, without experiencing it's sound and feel and looks first hand. And I'm concerned about the track record ... I think it's a bit young to have had head gasket and turbo problems. THAT's why I'd want to experience it first hand, so I could subjectively assess whether the recent repairs have made up for whatever went on previously in its life. Once you get it, you have the power to keep it healthy ... the only trick (with any used car) is getting it healthy in the first place. It's probably a good deal; just get all the eyewitness input that you can.
