I don't understand why the brakes would need to be re-done, just from the car sitting. And will tires really dry rot in 2 years?
Brake pads and tires should be somewhere around $750 I'd guess. Is a timing belt a $1,750 job?
Ok, sorry for all the questions. Anyway, assuming $1,600 is the DIY cost, I'd tell him that the PPI revealed $2,500 of work needed (true). Gauge his reaction. Go from there, with $1,600 in your mind as an accetable discount if indeed you like and want the car.
