Welcom..and nice choice. I say jump on it with that many miles it has to be well cared for..These cars are very well built and I am at 120000miles and only thing I have had to do is oil changes and alternator..everything else is a ok*)

First off welcome. I have a 1998 with 140K and bought it when it had 110K. When I 1st brought it home I did the most I could myself for doing a routine tuneup. I did the following, which some could've been overlooked by the previous owner, keep in mind some of this may be overkill, but to me is peace of mind:

1. Replace spark plugs
2. Replace oil and oil filter
3. Replace fuel filter
4, Replace air filter
5. Replace transmission filter
6. Drain and refill transmission fluid
7. Drain and refill brake fluid
8. Drain and refill power steering fluid
9. Drain and refill differential fluid
10. Drain and refill collant
11. Replace cabin air filter


Seems to be the most I can think of right now. The maintenance on this car isn't that expensive if you know how to to do it yourself. Parts aren't that expensive either. Feel free to do a search on related topics on these forums, there's a lot of info out there.
