ah im only buying it for a bit of messing so i hope she isn't rotten

Have a good look on the sills,arches,strut tops,front and rear panels,chassis legs,everywhere really but if its rust free its a good buy

If ya buying it for messing look for crunchy gear box as they start to give trouble at 100k and vvt rattle in the black tops

i noticed that, i think he genuinely didnt know about the rust because he took the car as a trade in last week and he seemed to be a decent lad.

he was in shock when we told him it wont ever pass a test again, which it wont

he got a bigger shock when i offered him 700 haha

Its a shame really, theres a lot of these going that way now. Even the uk ones are starting to rot badly. Its almost as hard to find a good one as it is s13's now.

Fair play to him if he tuck it down,friend of mine drove to wexford to look at a s13 and the fella never tuck it down after showing him how dangerous it was
