Could be, but the light switches are known to overheat and the dead indiactors could just be a dead relay (just the one for both sides on the Scorp as I remember)
Check for body damage and rust, check all the fluids especially the auto fluid. These are the things which I'd be thinking about on a car that age, not really the electrics. The fading display on the 7000 series radio is a common fault, mine used to die sometimes in the winter.
But 200k is no big deal if it's been well looked after, a lot of that could be motorway miles anyway.
Polished up, that could be a smart car for £300
