Welcome to the Zone.........

Places to look out for rust are mainly wheel archs, in the boot, behind the number plate panel and if it has the body kit fitted, behind those parts.

Hi mate welcome to the Zone.

That car looks nice and definately worth having even if it isn't a Sport (I'm a bit dubious about it bein a genuine one!)
