Series 92 engines are considered broken in at 150,000 miles. As others have noted, be more concerned about current condition, and past maintenance. As with any new purchase, always have the oil, transmission fluid, and coolant checked at a lab. These tests can indicate if there is anything bad going on in your engine, tranny, or cooling system that has not shown itself yet.
