What is actually wrong with it? The previous owner said it had some engine troubles. No doubt a fair bit of rust aswell.
Yeah, its the one from Southland - Apparently it blew a turbo, I'm hoping to get the head off this weekend and see whether it's been damaged much, the ECI thing leaked fuel all over the place when I tried to start it, and its pretty rusty, there's a rusty hole in the passenger side floor, rust under the rear seats and a complete mess under the front windscreen. Exhaust manifold is cracked badly...
Rear brakes were seized. Otherwise it doesn't look too bad, interior is mostly pretty good, digital dash still works.
Still not 100% sure what I'm going to do with it - depends on what state the engine is in, as I'd rather spend money on my good starion...
