Known Issues to Watch For

Manual preferred by enthusiasts. Body: Steel - rust is critical concern. Check all structural areas carefully. Electrics: Various eras have different systems - all need specialist knowledge. Trim: Interior parts very expensive. Leather. Wilton carpets. General: These are appreciating classics requiring significant investment. Budget £15k+ annually. Specialist essential.
