Hello all; I'm thinking of buying a 1983 4L (not sure anything else about car - engine size for example).
The car is for sale by a small bodyshop garage and on the face of it is in exceptional condition, but with high miles. 230000km = about 145000miles.
It is in the common beige colour and has been resprayed by the shop. I don't know about the chassis and other potential rust-potential areas. I reckon it is not expensive at €1200 (£950).
Could someone please give me some guidance as to what I should look at in order of importance (i.e. what problems would be the most costly to repair. I'm at an age now where I don't really want to do too much work on cars - been there, done it all.
