I'm sure a thorough wash and polish and a good vacuuming out followed by a serious spanking would clarify any faults.

They can be rough running from cold, but once warmed up they lube up quite well.
can cause moisture in moving parts, will require a stirp down & some skinned knuckles may occur.

I would mebbies keep it for a month & rack up the miles, then dump it & let someone else strip it.

Someone should ask the seller if they can have a test drive before they buy.

Went to have a look today...
So much rust on the outside and like people say it has definately been in a rear end smash there were signs everywhere and it all looked loose tbh...
Had a good poke around inside and it stunk like grimsby docks, who knows what has happened in there.
