Weeeeeeeeeeell, theres rust under the bonnet near the nose. which i heard is to be expected for a 280 of that year, hole in the exhaust. I think its just mainly rust. gearbox thing fell through (not entirely sure whats the problem cause its a auto) Also a few little things like sun visor on drivers side not on (ive got it in the boot) left bulb blown (easy fix) high beams not working apparently, the needle on the taco wobbles when under 40km/phr, need a locking fuel cap. coolant hose needs replacing.

That about i think/hope. alot of the stuff is a easy fix but its just the rust im concerned about. i have no idea what its like underneath the car. i think my dad does cause he's the one that dropped it off.

What do you recon?
