And the list of problems
When firing the engine from cold if you leave it idling for a few min it will misfire. If you rev it a little bit or drive straight away it won’t. It is a very odd fault that I haven’t looked in to. Turning it off/on stops the miss and literally doesn’t miss a beat other then cold start only if left to idle.
Engine has an oil leak. Not sure where from but it does land on the manifold and stinks.
Sunroof drips on you when raining (Polly sheet included in sale to ‘blank’ this
Washer pump not working (new one included)
Slight clunk on steering that’s intermittent which I believe to be the centre joint which is included in the sale
Where the cage goes to the front struts in heavier rain it does come in the car. I have sealed it a little bit and is much, much better but I assume will need sealing more or i missed a bit.

As for rust I have been here there and everywhere on the car it’s 22 years old!!! While there are bits I don’t believe any to be excessive.

Car is now tucked away in my garage.
