Good deal?

2002 S-type.

-119,000 miles
-great condition
-Clear carfax, 1 owner
-No accidents
- $8000


Should I tell him like 7500, if everything checks out okay at the mechanics?

has the timing belt been done?
did you try autocheck instead of carfax?
did you have it inspected b a mechanic?
'how many times has the transmission been replaced?
how are the tires?
interior?
pictures?

If it checks out at the mechanics then good, make sure you look for any re-welding. Mechanics just looks at the things they know about, and they dont know autobody. Just eye the paint, make sure everything is matching. Then check the engine may to make sure all frame is not rusted, almost check the trunk and flat tire area for any repair work. If they got into an accident and not report it, carfax wont show. 7500, I would go lower. do 7200, say its got a lot of miles, if no timing belt change, go ever lower.

My mechanic just so happens to be a good family friend and a transmission specialist, so I will have him take extra time on the tranny.
