As above. The one I am talking about is a 1995 (Over 20 years old now )...

These tend to rot I know, just wondered if there are any bits I can look at straight away to see how bad this particular car is?

Orite mate. The rust pretty much everywhere but the areas more prone I found on my old GSI was the sills, spare wheel well, around the rear wiper gromit, corner of the spoiler, around the rear lights, rear panel, front lower crossmember. Worst areas though was the sills, needed new sills welding in. Hope this helps

Along with everything mentioned, also the rear panel behind the rear bumper.

As said, pretty much everywhere
