Default 145 Auction - Help

Hi,

Just stumbled across a 145 coming up for auction this weekend at Anglia Car Auctions in Kings Lynn.

https://angliacarauctions.co.uk/clas...l-estate-1972/

Have had a hankering for one of these for some time, virtually since I bought my daily 945 around 11 months go.

Sods law, only found this with a few days left before the auction, and no way I can get to view it in time.

From the photos, looks quite good with some history and story might well be true, am very tempted to take a punt, but one photo did set alarm bells ringing, rust bubbling through at lower corner of windscreen, also video shows car running, and the engine did sound like a proverbial bag of spanners.

Sensible head - Never Buy Unseen, Heart - its a red/orange 70's Volvo estate, but hey, whatever floats your boat...

Any suggestions welcome, how much to aim for???

Cheers
Steve
