Horrendous isn’t it.
Price wise, it’s pretty muc a grand off the asking price because of the problem. That’s why it’s tempting.
There are others out there and I could buy one that ‘looks’ ok for a full asking price, then find I need to do it down the line anyway. My thinking was to buy this cheap, repair it. Then it’s an MX-5 that’s been repaired and would still be a good price. But I’d only buy it knowing I could repair it.
That makes me worry with the rust that I can’t see. Didn’t think of that.
