Gearbox, rust, electrics are the main issues, 16v open aire are quite rare.

Oooo a 16v Open air? The best 6n to leave the factory!

Where a bounce in Northants are you? I'm in Daventry myself :)

I used to work in Daventry managing some housing right in the town centre - used to hate it.

Cool car mate!

Over in Desborough mate had a good look at her over the last couple of days she was Leaking oil from rocker cover turns out you can't get a new gasket as fixed to cover so put sealant around and hope for the best bad news is it well roten underneath so going to need a fair bit of welding!!!

That's unusual to have so much rust on a 6n. Has it lived by the sea at some point.

Ah okay, near Kettering right?

And yeah, they do like to rot! Usually the body though, maybe it's been sat on grass for a few years?
