Looks pretty solid.

Only thing that bothers me is the ad says;

BODYWORK IS IN LOVELY CONDITION FOR A CAR OF THIS AGE WITH ONLY SOME AGE RELATED MARKS

But in the pics you can clearly see;
Both rear quarter lower panels have been repaired and repainted the wrong colour and both are still rusty at the bottom (so what work was done, was it a decent repair or was it a P38 job?)
It's been tapped up the arse and front (rear bumper is shoved forward, front bumper is shoved back)
The panel gaps on the drivers side front wing are bad (wing to bonnet and wing to door)

Hopefully these are nothing more than the obvious minor niggles they appear to be, rather than anything serious, but I think they're a bit more than "age related marks"? (so I wonder how accurate the rest of the description is?)

An MOT failure for inner sill corrosion perhaps?

Yeah, looks a bit rougher than described. The drivers bolster is fubard too.

It's probably not as bad as I've made it out now!!!

If I was in the market for one, I'd definitely still go and look at it for that price, that's for sure!

It's quite easy for the bumpers to be out of alignment on 3rd gens, so not necessarily had a knock.

The rust on the NSR arch doesn't look too great though. Looks like it's well and truly in the arch as well.
