is this really an 85 model, i was never aware of an ST162 being made in 85 cos that would mean it'd run on leaded petrol, or the modern equivalent rather than plain ulp.

Not wanting to cause any friction --- but ....
That engine oil leak is most likely the rear main seal or the housing that the rear main seals sits in - not cheap to fix and can cause big issues later on. Power steering fluid leaks should be fixed otherwise the rubbers (such as the ones on the CVs etc!) will deteriorate.
But yeah the price sounds about right! Wish more ppl would buy these cars
