"Treat her nice and she'll return the favour"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

The car always overheated (it was an ex-pilot driver's car, hence the high Km's). We never fixed the problem.

The clutch wore at 323000. Sold the car before I fixed it.

The car burned heaps of oil (about 1 litre every month). Again, never fixed the problem (not properly anyway).

The car had rust in a few places (the roof edges and the sills mainly).

This car quickly went through 2 diffs just before I got it (because of excessive hooning by my brother).

General comments?

Our car was a bad example because of its earlier life (ex-pilot driver's car). These cars are good (ie;reliable) if you look after them and don't hoon the hell out of them.
