Put your knee on the front bumper, bounce it up and down, and watch the gap between the fenders and the cowl. If it moves at all, walk away. Also look close at the body where the rear axle mounts to the body. If there's even a hint of rust, walk away.
Plan on replacing the headliner if it hasn't already been done.
I've owned at least one of every color, Silver, Red, Black, White.
In the US they only made them in 83 and 84, in 85 they went to the MkII
