Auto's can give up if they have been given a hard life.
Diff support bushes fail in a heavily flogged manual IRS Cradle outer upper and lower control arm bushes fail Rust in A Pillars (common AU problem)

Rust everywhere! Au's are worse than EF/L IMO.
Door sills-Door jams too Bonnet-Underneath leading edge, up near the wiper cowl too Bootlid In the recess where the boot struts mount Edges of front and rear windscreens 67RCE is on the money. The other risk is that you will fall in love with it and buy it
