You are basically buying a can of worms, i would image the ecu has been flooded as is a common fault on these, if you are not up to speed on ecus and engine management you could be throwing alot of money away, at 160k the engine and gearbox would be well used and could cause you further problems, my advise to you would be to walk away, unless you are paying peanuts for the car
