Right, had a look at it today. The seller is a guy who works with my boyfriend, so let me have the keys and i could look around it on my own.
It is in pretty good condition, but i felt like something was dodgy, the guy said he bought it 2 weeks ago for £1400.
When i was in the car, found a piece of paper in log book saying "sold as seen £725" signed by the new owner. So I think that means theres something else wrong with it, coz a fully working 16vt wouldnt go for £725 would it?
And you are all right, too much work, too much to learn all in one go. I will just look for a good running one.
Also its the first one ive had a proper look around in, and they are great cars, makes me want one even more, so I hope you all dont mind, but im gonna stay lurking about on the forum asking more stupid questions
Thanks again for your advice
