Found a good deal here in Brazil. It's a 1998 110. Engine has been done 20.000km ago. Seller says it's running great and in good shape, no rust. What do you guys think?

More images (album) can be seen here:

Thanks

Can't tell without going underneath it.

Looks shiny, but dealers make their money making things look shiny on the outside.

Yeah looks okay on top but that's just cleaning.

Needs a thorough chassis and bulkhead inspection not just the outside paintwork

The engine pic is of a very clean 300tdi. Is the engine air intake vent not on the wrong wing for a 300tdi?

Agreed. Some caution required.

As it is LHD the heater box has moved to the RH of the engine bay (RH as driving that is). That means the cabin air intake is at the top of the RH wing. The Air filter is on the RH side of the engine. The air intake is on the left wing??? I thinks that it's two different vehicles.
