As above please, looking at one over the weekend, seems a pretty good car and the guy is honest and upfront which is always good

But as we know they all can hide their problems...

Cheers

 

As there so old now the whole underside needs checking properly

Rear chassis around where the springs sit is a common place,also rear chassis where rear beam mounts to it

 

rear of the sills inner and outer under the body kit mine was worst on the passinger side but only rusty on the drivers rear chassis leg from rear beam mount to spring top

 

I have a mate whos car has gone around the rear beam area too on him 2wd, is it the same problem with the 3dr as i havent heard of this one before?

 

i know its under the carpet but the gearbox tunnel rotts around where the plastic heater thing that goes under the seat screws in the floor and the front seat mountings. thats the rear of the front seats. also around the grills in the front foot wells as these are just covered with sound deadening and water can get in through the jack points in the front and look like they rot under the seam sealer.

 

Just walk away and go buy something German

Check all the above mate ie, rear chassis rails, inners/outer sills.
Check front Suspension turrets as they can be cracked.
Check boot floor to see if its been rear ended at any point.
Check to see if the front brake lines are crushed as people jack close to them.

Just do all the usual checks mate....Good luck with the search

 

Check the jacking points haven't been crushed or ripped off. Check the wheelarches!

 

Everywhere, its a sierra

 

Cheers peeps, we'll just have to give it a thorough once over then!

I hope your prepared for it then!

 

i will bring my large screwdriver and lump hammer
