And although it's usual for the rear wings to rot on the estates it is not an easy fix, unfortunately, as its often a lot worse underneath. It does look like it could be a lot of work to get right so if I were you, I'd see how it goes but do, in the end, be prepared for it to be bought for spares by someone. And it might not easily sell for £250 if it is immobile - and no paperwork will not help. Best of luck though, get what you can for it (to be frank, even though it is a TD estate - a good combo - it's worth precious little to most sadly), and thanks for thinking of us.
It's been sat on concrete for about 3-4 years I believe and I did have a look underneath and it looks like it's been under coated but I haven't had a chance to look under it properly. I've done some research and they look like really interesting cars with quite a niche following

Can I suggest getting a few more photos, showing the rust issues.
The milage is genuine, it only had one owner that I know of and I believe she owned it from new or a few years off new and she wouldn't have tampered with it, she only used it for small trips as she was quite elderly. The reason the front is so bashed up is because the owners son managed to drive it into a gatepost in his infinite wisdom.

I'm going to see if her son has any paperwork to prove all of this though. As for pictures, I'm in the process of taking some more right now as I didn't have a chance to the last time I was there. Thank you all for your help though!
