you are gonna be in a world of hurt at the dealer for those services.

Brakes. They will charge you probably $1k for parts and another $700 or more for labor. This is robbery btw.

Spark plugs changed, probably another $1k

Brake fluid, $250

Water pump, probably another $1k or more

Your first order of business is to do a Pre-purchase inspection on the car at an independent mechanic to see what it needs and then find a good indy mechanic to do your work.

For instance, even with a markup on parts, a good indy would do those jobs for half or less.
