Gonna check out an '89 190e in a few hours

not really looking to buy a car, but it's cheap and clean (could use a good detail, no rust, minor wear and tear for a nearly 27 year old vehicle) he said the interior is like new with 132k miles, which is nothing for an 1989. He said it starts up and runs and drives but has a ticking noise under the valve cover, my buddy said valves. I'm unfamiliar with these dinosaurs, but anything in particular I should look for in these vehicles? How about that ticking noise? I'm a pretty confident DIY'r, how DIY friendly is this thing?
