That saph looks straight and original bar the indicators,fogs or lack of and a few bits under the bonnet.
As long as it's rust free and the running gears good it looks a good buy.
See I'm a bit different mate I wouldn't buy a cossie just because I could sell it on for more, I bought mines because I want to keep it and don't want to entertain the thought of selling it. Mines is a 4x4 converted to 2wd so comes with the better engine, l8, leathers and bonnet vents ect but with full 2wd suspension brakes and running gear obviously uprated in places.
It's all personal choice at the end of the day.
That crystal one the op has just posted looks really clean worth a punt depending on sills and chassis legs ect.
