I just picked one up for £1100 and its very very good for the money, interior is very good, not mint, but very good, externally its very good origional paint, a few car park dings but ill pop them out. The motor is very strong, and gearbox is brilliant, and its for 164,000 on the clock. Suspension is spot on aswell. And mountains of paperwork to go with it
it just needs a wheel bearing and ill put a cam belt on it for peice of mind. id say look for cars with lots of service history and buy with ur head... not ur heart and u wont go far wrong.
sound like u really hit yourself a jackpot... would love to see your ride (picture)
