That’s a nice looking car and seems like a fair price too.

Check that sunroof, notorious for leaking. Can’t tell if it’s curved or flat, flat ones are worse. Ride height is easy to lower and makes the car look much better, do all the polybushes at the same time and the car will be transformed. Change the rear shocks to telescopic GAZ are probably your best bet as they are adjustable. Fit electronic ignition and unless it’s been done get a carb rebuild kit from Burlen. Done an over a few months that’ll cost you around £700 and give you a more comfortable and reliable car.

Well done
