Has anyone been to have a look at the Cinq Sporting that is for sale in Bodmin, Cornwall? Appears in average condition on paper but wasn't too sure what would be revealed in the flesh. I live in Lancashire and getting there and back is going to cost a few quid. Any thoughts?
 
Ask the seller to send you some photos. The dodgy areas internally are the driver's seat bolster and the headlining, if the roof has leaked. Bodywork you need to get a look inside the rear wings, at the bottom front and at the back of the wheel arch.

The sub-frame needs to not be falling apart and where it mounts to the chassis rails must not be corroded. Get a photo of the underside of the chassis rails.

Also, the rear spring pans, since they're difficult to get hold of.

Everything else can be fixed reasonably simply.

HI Ralf

Thanks for your words of wisdom. I decided to get a pre-purchase inspection done on the car and highlighted the areas of concern to the mechanic. After I cleared permission form the vendor, he went and sold it!!:bang: Back to square on. Thanks again.:mad:
