sorry only just spotted this i used to have a red one that changed hands to saad. great cars the nearest you'll get to a cooper without it being one. usual things to look for under headlights, door bottoms, skuttle panel, a panels and front floors all for rot. only thing to keep an eye open for is if you want to keep it stock it should have black bumpers, door handles these are hard to find and cost more second hand than the chrome or stainless items (good haggling point ) oh and the steering wheel should have an italian flag in the middle if it hasn't they are hard to find as well. let us know how you get on dude
