Rust in sills and around arches are potential problems. Suspension wear is common with age. Electrical issues can also be expected. Parts supply in NZ can be very patchy.
Inspect rust, particularly around the sills. Make sure that the brake lines have no corrosion and the suspension is not worn. Check ALL lights are compliant.
