Engine bay looks ...., dirty, rust, etc
Boot is missing the carpet etc. Wires hang down (?) like a birds nest.
All that can be fixed.
The corrosion is far more serious. In worst case you need to do some extensive repairs to the Aluminium skin. If one side is bad, I would expect more problems elsewhere. Expensive repair, corrosion on the arches. Of course, you can do Plastic Padding, but then Mr Crook will haunt you......
Nice interior.

You need a test drive. Long and hard, as they say here on Island.....

And I do not like the rust on the suspention. If that is rusty, how are the inner wheel arches?
And WHY are they so rusty? Garage been flooded? Sniff in the cabin for mould.
