First car 2005 Chevrolet cavalier Sedan 4D $2,000 72,000 miles (needs new gages) is it worth it?

Hi, i need help. I am looking for my 1st car. I saw this car that is from an elderly with only 72,000 miles for $2,000. She said the paint is fading and needs new gages but other than that its good. I don't have any records of oil changes. I don't really know much about cars, does needing new gages a bad thing and is it expensive? Please help. here are some pictures.
