You can get a better one for similarly small money. The 601 tends to be pretty trouble free. sixto is right on the heater core issues. The tach not working can be an expensive fix.

I found that it may be cheaper to get a rebuilt drive shaft with an already set center support bearing. I did this once and got a realy good deal on a rebuilt drive shaft.

The windows are a relay issue, and not a switch issue.

Personally, the 2.2 auto is SLOW, whereas the 2.2 5speed is actually quite spirited. I would pass on this one. There are TOO many little problems that are quite expensive.
