Idle Air Control Valve, kept clogging up causing idle problems.
Camshaft cover gasket leaked causing oil to run onto exhaust manifold.
Near side Wheel Bearing.
Clutch.
Handbrake Cable snapped.
Water pump broke up.

A very nice car, very comfortable and smooth, nice to drive with plenty of equipment. A good sized car felt safe and sturdy.
