I think that the cost to repair an older car has gone up considerably, makes it harder to justify vs the cost to replace. Also, I think that the Gen-Xers are better at video games than real-life analysis and troubleshooting, feel that a quick trip through college will land them big money and they won't need to fix anything, ... hard lessons ahead as the unemployed masses are full of college degrees as are the assembly lines and fast-food counters. I digress.
Look for rust in the rockers on that car. Between the front wheels and jack-point and benind the rear jack-point, bottoms of doors. If a manual-window car it's something we didn't get here in the states, I don't know how hard used regulators etc. are to find there if you need them, might check window operation too.
