Exhaust leaks.
Light bulbs blown.
Rust damage.
Brakes.
Mostly minor stuff.
General comments?
Great car! Totally enjoying my time as a poor student with it. Very affordable price tag, and I'm actually surprised how fuel efficient it is. It does around 10 - 12km per litre depending on whether its stop and go city driving, or long distance running. Even with a high mileage it's running strong. Sure it doesn't have all the luxuries of a brand new car, but I will be keeping it for a while yet still!
