Bought one with under 30,000 miles in 1990...

Great car. The only problems were the timing chain tensioner, which cause the engine to make a knocking sound, and the front brakes. The timing chain tensioner was revised so I bolted a new one in, and the front brakes were changed in 1988 to the 9000 style brakes. The handbrake sadly no long operated on the front wheels, but the new design calipers were less troublesome.
Why believe what most people say? You only live once so do what you want to do! That's the lesson I've learned.
