sounds like you've found a good candidate, but definitely pay an inspection mechanic to look it over. the price sounds reasonable for what you describe, but usually this is dictated by the local market more than anything. if there are 5 more like it in town, you'll have more leverage. if people are roadtripping in from 3 states away to test drive that one, then he's got more.
If you keep yourself prepared for the extra operational costs and mechanical risks of an XT, you can have a lot of fun while only paying station wagon rates for insurance. that is much of the magic of the XT.
Good luck and have fun!
