Hi all
I was considering going to take a look at this coupe but was worried about the power steering problem. Does anyone have an idea what the problem might be and is it an expensive repair?

Thanks

Looks alright, would always recommend looking at a few then decide. Btw welcome, 20v always better.

might just be the power steering pump, could be something more serious - have you read the buyers guide off here? if not, search for it, there's a goldmine of info to help your decision

20v not always better think about insurance costs ,16v are easier to work on and are suppose to be more reliable

Looks like a nice car for the money - always keep a few £s available for other jobs. Expect to spend the cost again on a cheapy, but the 16v are getting rarer.

Good luck, Tim
