Does anyone here own a 230S and can comment on it?

I just wanted to know what you guys think of an 18 year old kid owning one. I have another thread considering it. I just wanted your input on a few things. Basically, what do you think of yours? Do they usually have A/C? The one I'm looking at doesn't seem to, but there looks like there are a few wires hanging down where an add-on would go and I don't have any pics of the engine bay. I know I shoudl look for rust, etc. But where do you guys send rear brake shoes to be re-lined? That is the kind of stuff I need to know. Also, where do you go for parts since fastlane doesn't really have a catalog for such things? Are the carbs difficult to get in synch and running half-way decent or are they more like the later ones that are hell to deal with?
Thanks
David
