Engine and transmission very solid. This body is known to suffer from rust. The worst manifestation is rust at the front spring perches, which will collapse if it progresses too far.
Also, quality of the electronics suffered, and maybe this series also suffers from the degrading engine wire harness. If the car has been well maintained, and no rust or already had the spring perches repaired, then probably a solid car.
