Hi,
Not necessarily. Something to investigate to be sure, but it could just be dirty and in need of an Oil/Filter change. Fresh Oil will clean it and it'll sound OK. The lifter could also be bad, but not likely as the lifters on the M96 aren't usually a problem. I wouldn't automatically run away if everything else checks out, I'd ask the seller to pay for an Oil change (with the proviso that if that fixed the issue and I bought the car, I'd reimburse him for half) Hope this helps...
Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
