I have the same car with 135k miles - bought it with 126. There should be a sticker on the timing cover or filter box with the last timing belt change. It should be changed at 50,ooo mile intervals. The PO went 7000 past the last change. The best thing would be to have a different shop do a compression and leak down test - 200us. As with any car with or w/o records - change all the fluids so that car starts out clean? I paid 6,000 for mine and it has the bellows problem causing the air conditioner to quit for a few seconds on acceleration. This is a 500us fix. Other things I have repaired myself that the po abused or broke. Sorry for the rambling. Don't let the FAQ scare you - it is a great car with an appropriate amount of power for it's intended purpose. Good Luck.
