Value depends largely on location.
Isn't there a FAQ on these? Flame trap, engine seals, etc are worth checking.
I paid $1600 for a 1991 740, non turbo, perfect interior, good drivetrain, minor body dents (no rust anywhere) for my wife.
The O/D did not engage: after troubleshooting, replaced the solenoid, changed the fluid, and it works fine.
Only real problem: one of the wires which is soldered onto the in tank fuel pump came loose, causing an on the road failure.
I towed it home, and after troubleshooting, removed the pump and fixed it with a soldering iron.
Keep a spare fuel pump realy in the glove box, and know how to access and replace the relay(s).
