At 100K miles, the whole car needs to be checked. Take it to a mechanic with access to the STARS diagnostics system and check for any stored codes. See if you can get dealer records (long shot). Take a ride in the car and look for any transmission jerk at around 1500 RPM. See if the supercharge works and the IC pump kick in. And do more searching and reading here. How much is the car? There is a price for everything.

I have a hard time following your English, but I'll try. The price of the car may very based on your location. In the US market, 14K for a 2002 C32 with 100k miles is a lot. Especially since your are saying that it has issues appearance wise. See if you can get it for less or walk away. For that money look ofr a 2003+ with less miles.
Regarding the supercharger, try getting the car to 60MPH from a stop and see if it moves. Listen for any unussual sounds the car may make. After that, open the hood and check the engine bay for anything that looks unussual or smells unussual. It's a complex car and a lot of things can be wrong. If you are new to supercharged cars, take it to a good mechanic to be checked out.

$14,000 is a great deal in your location on that car in my opinion. but test drive the car and listen for any strange noises at idle and what malfunctions there are on the screen.

I would check for Glycol contamination -- especially if its a 2002.

It can rust out your transmission, and mess it up. I wouldn't worry about that though, I was reading that it is a common problem with the Valeo radiators. Just make sure it runs smooth, and like someone said, have it checked by a mechanic. Good luck.
