180s have a few issues to look out for, the plastic bodied clutch slave and master cylinders fail because they are not up to the job, a fix is available from Sheddist on xpf.

Rattling inlet manifolds and failed vis mechanisms are also an issue, wether or not timing belts are due is a good negotiating point, they're about ?500 to get done.

mk2 seem to have some inferior quality interior parts like the carpet, which was better quality in early cars.

Options available were things like the xtreme boot spoiler, leccy rear windows, seat coverings, iirc a sunroof was also an option.
