Default Is this major problem?

Hi

I saw a 1987 190E we wanted to buy it until we check for blow by, when we open up the oil cap there was lost of blow by and oil shooting out. What causes the oil to shoot out when the cap is opened, The cars RPM is @ 500.

Thx

Sounds like rings and/or pistons are shot. Not the car I'd want to buy. Sounds like a money pit to me.
