Then work out whether it is worth the money. A 2 door 8v turbo with some dodgy patches of aerokit plastics, and signs of a breakin with a very short MOT and no tax was up for sale for £1100 near me recently. See if you find a post on here regarding the Vin decoder. Thanks for the advice Carl. The VIN decoder at http://www.nospam.com/turbo/DIY/vin.html#86on shows it to be what it says on the tin. It's a 1984, Trollhattan made, 5 speed 16 Valve Turbo intercooler 4 (four) door saloon. I took it for an MOT today. It didn't pass, but it was not too bad. Handbrake inoperative on one side, low effort on the other. Foglight not working and a bald rear tyre. Can I really be arsed to fix the handbrake myself (I'm certainley not paying for it) and CAN I actually do it without ballsing it up? If so, I'd get a tyre on it and keep it. It's a nicer drive than the 900S, for sure, due to the good 'box and turbo How difficult is the handbrake? I suspect it needs at least one new cable. No action on one side, low on other. Thanks again, always appreciated :-) Mike
