Assuming you have some mechanical knowledge and have looked at the car ( as you would any other car ) to make sure it isnt a neglected bag of bolts , you,l be pleasantly surprised just how good the 180 is.....listen for a rattle from top of engine like a sorta tappet rattle .... that would be a duff inlet manifold and a second hand one can usually be found... vis motors on the inlet manifold play up ..... but again are easily fixed .... see "how to repair your vis motors on here

Mine gets used as intended and on a fast long journey returns a regular 32 MPG.... Truely a very underated car in my opinion
