there are a couple of points il like o point out. there not really "bad bits" as there only superficial

1. drivers door has dropped slightly theres no issues opening and closing it at all, it just annoys me and il include all the parts needed to rehang it.

2. interior fans are stuck on hot. cable locator lug has snapped so ive kept them on hot. also the fan motor has been put on a switch

3. exhaust system sounds like its blowing a little. it aint bad and sum1 with a welder or an exhaust place will sort it out in 2 seconds flat. will prob get this done early next week

4. x2 manifold studs snapped off in the head. not an issue as it dont blow again just annoys me and il include a good replacement head

5. started motor clicks sumtimes has done this for 6+ years and has never failed to start (spare also included)

i must have forgot loads but its has a massive history file of recipts and old mot's ect.....
