One year ago (in western NYS) I was very happy to find a red '91 200q
(with only 57K miles) in excellent condition for a tad over $6K. I'm
still happy. Mine needed a t-belt service and the A/C didn't work. I
agree with Ed's advice--offer $5K and see. Your's probably needs a
t-belt, too, so that and the A/C represents a _potential_ $600-700 of
needed repairs (of course it might be as little as $200 if you're
lucky). Carefully check  the condition of the front brakes--the UFOs
are good brakes but expensive if rotors need to be replaced.
