Is this a mark 2? What model, 2 door / 4 door?
How bad is the rust, and what is the overall condition of panels / interior?

it is a four door sedan.
The rust isnt heaps bad but there is bubble appearing in the drivers A pillar which needs attention for safety reasons.
interior is good.
I could probably register it for another five years if i wanted...
im a mechanic by trade so it always gets regular oil, coolant, plugs points etc...
overall it is good condition but it is 29 years old. dont consider it do turn into a super car, (who would)but it is a reliable cheap commuter which will just keep on going.
start it up drive it to work and dont spend a cent on it...

Ahem... 18R, thankyou. All that nasty power-sapping pollution gear didn't start until 1976...
I can vouch for the sheer reliability of these things, and they're not as slow as you may expect either.
Buy!
P.S - free bump.
