BUYING TIPS
■ Finding front wings and bonnet can be tricky and check for rust around the sunroof – repairs here can become involved.
■ Check the body mounting points and outriggers for signs of corrosion. Box sections rust from the inside out, too.
■ The four-speed gearbox demands kid-glove treatment so listen for signs of worn synchromesh and excessively noisy gears pointing to chipped or stripped teeth.
