The bodies tend to be rust free, but the chassis arn't!!

ACE pipe work if fitted, air suspension goes up and down smoothly, all the electric bits work, oil in the loom.

Probably more but thats as much as I know.

Oh me god, there's lots!

ACE, condition of suspension, condition of the intake + egr valve.

Plus all the usual, plus leaking roofbars and/or sunroofs.

ALL electrics need checking,
