With a 180 are you are looking at clutch slave cylinder issues, rattly plenum causing a loss of power and ~£500 for a replacement, VIS issues.

That said, you don't have to worry as much about HGF. Apart from plenum and VIS issues the KV6 is pretty solid.

Cambelt changes are very expensive. Get one with belts done.

Apart from that, you will find the same old stiff rear door handles, heater blower 1&2 not working, leaky boot, rattly door issues that you might find on a 120, all of which are easy fixes!
