Mate, I'd ring him up and speak to him, says the project isn't finished but doesn't mention what needs doing?

No idea what they're worth in Australia, but it looks a tidy one so I'd have thought it'd be worth quite a bit more than $3000

this is what he said not much (maybe fit yourself a CD player and some very minor body work).. also he said the reserve is under $5000

are these reliable cars? or do they break down easily
and any idea how good/poor they are in driving?

Welcome to the site by the way

Well, I know European cars are expensive over there compared to here [for obvious reasons] but that doesn't sound bad for a car that looks that good!

I've no idea what your road worthiness tests are like over there, but just makes sure all the sills are solid

Reliable? Well, it'll be more reliable than a Cossie

Seriously though mate, they're not bad, but its a 30 year old car so it's going to have its problems
