Sometimes one can get carried away trying to read the "tea leaves" in terms of repairs that have been done. Replacing the water pump and ignition at 68K sounds a little early, but the car is 9 years old too, which also has an affect. It shouldn't raise any "red flags." I beleive the average adult driver in the US gets in some type of an accident every three years so on the average just about any 9 year old car is bound to have had some body work in it's life time, as long as it was fixed right it shouldn't be a worry. However, the bone dry coolant reservoir is a very big concern, I'd definately want to know what's going on there before making a purchase.
