Default Looking to buy ls400. 92. 200k+ miles. leaking power steering pump. crazy to buy?

i was looking at a lexus for $2500, 92, 200kmiles

needs new suspension and power steering leaks.
am I crazy to even think about it?
Can I use it a year without doing anything?
its probably hard to say without looking at the car, but you guys would know best of all.

just lost my a4 so I am looking at lexus.
thanks

Its only fitting that I post here. I am selling a 92 ls with a slightly leaking power sreering pump and in need of bushing replacement. It has 198k miles but I have done a ton of work to it. It has been and still is reliable just needs some work

I'm also asking $2500, check me out. I have an ad in the classifieds. 2500 with the touchscreen, 2k without it.

power steering leaks notoriously lead to alternator failure.

get it checked out and don't wait a year.

there are about a zillion posts on power steering leaks.
