not knowing its history - or any second hand car is always a lottery.
240,000 IMHO isnt bad... you will find most around that figure.
search for photos of Woops rebuild - 550k klms and you can still see the cross hatching in the bores from new.. but that has had oil and filters every 5000 from new.

yeah doesnt sound too bad if its in mint condition.
once you do a few other things like turbo and that will be a really good truck.

Folks around here have businesses washing your pets namely dogs. They mostly come to you to do it and they lug around these fibre glass trailers that are more of a bath/grooming parlour on wheels for you pooch...
They prolly do quite well for themselves...
