paid £750 for it, never been welded and only 4 small rust spots, 119k, 10 months m.o.t and 15" BBS alloys! Booked it in for a full fluid+filter service at my local BMW specialists.. feels excellent to drive but fingers crossed nothing falls off it lol

Found it on Ebay for £995 and offered him £750 cash if i picked up in 1 hour.. I was hooked on ebay solid for a week until a decent one came up lol. It was between an e30 and a golf mk2 gti.. after driving the e30 i didnt even consider a golf!

I don't know about anything to expect in particular as mine was poorly maintained. I'd pull the boot carpet out to look in the jack storage bit and under the first aid tray thing, I found quite a bit of water under the jack. The antenna seal was leaking and a few people seem to have rust or poor seal around the back of the tail lights.
