My dad always said years were harder than miles, but that car probably has plenty of life left in it if the mechanics look as good as the rest of it. Inspect all the hoses (don't just look at them, squeeze them), rubber boots, rubber bushings, belts etc. for cracks as time tends to be hard on them. When you test drive, listen for smoothness in the engine, transmission, and handling/suspension. Make some tight turns. Accelerate hard. Any clicking, clunking, rubbing noises could be a sign of wear. The transmission should shift smoothly. Look for blue smoke when it starts and under acceleration. Engine power should be good. A dry engine block would be great, but there may be a little "weeping" around the valve cover gasket. Minor oil leaks are not that big of deal, but can get annoying if you care about your driveway, or you start having to add oil every fill-up (which woul dbe a major oil leak). Look at the ground where they park it. Any records to substantiate mileage/maintainance would be good. In my experience, Hondas and Toyotas tend to drive (even if they don't look) prety much like new until you start pushing 175-200k, after that the suspension gets tired. If the engine and tranny are sound, you would probably be fine to take that car up to 200k plus, but I would budget at least $500 per year in repairs. One other consideration is the emissions inspections/requirements in your state. Some older cars have trouble passing in some areas, but in others they are exempt and can be preferable to a car just over the threshold for exemption.
