As above, plus front drop links and anti-roll bar bushes were a common fault on most but are cheap to replace. I had one a few years back and took everything I threw at it including track days, its survived well past 100K without its cambelt change....just luck I suppose!

The air box with the holes in it was a common "bodge" on the standard air box to improve air flow. The revs issue might be a ISCV that needs removed and cleaned as that was a common issue too.

Great cars if you can find one that isn't riddled with rust now, such a shame as the chassis is great. Puma engine is a pretty easy conversion and most say it should have had it from the start for a better all round car.
