What things have gone wrong with the car?
Blown Head Gasket (Twice)
CV Joints Creaking.
New Exhaust.
Drained Cooling System.
General comments?
Good first car, nippy and handles well. Will begin to cost money as it gets older. Prone to overheating. No temperature gage means head gasket failure is a big problem.
