Thats interesting. I wonder if its sufferd from the autobox failure problem? New owner un-aware of the issue with flashing 'D' perhaps? Or could have suffered the old rusty exhaust pipe and the exhaust has fallen off
Or even the Anti-roll bar brackets have snapped 
Interesting all the same....

The flashing D is caused by
The flashing D is caused by the pressure sensor on the gearbox, If there is not sufficient oil pressure in the auto gearbox, the light is triggered. Or of course the sensor could become duff.
So the reasons for the fasling D are.
Poor quality old oil, or oil too thick when cold. (30 secs idle when cold before moving is advised)
Oil too low.
Or a dicky sensor, (most likely damaged from dirty oil)
