Not sure mate, mine had no rust. I had over heating issues, clutch, electrics.
Heating issues eh? Clutch i would of expected, french gearboxes & clutches seem to be made of cheese. Electrics can happen to any car I suppose, what sort went wrong?

Burning it.
My friend had a 106 XSi, the 1.4 one, it was a smokey old dog but it was fun.

Getting rid mate, cant be bothered fixing it now, needs a new cross member. Dont actaully like the car tbh, only like carabic blue if it has a GSI kit, which I dont have. And its a 1.2, fancy something faster.

Dont know really, depends how much a 95 1.2 8v corsa B is worth with a fucked cross-member 
Looking about Ł60 to fix it yourself, but i just cant be fucked with it anymore.

Signed up to the 106 owners club last night, slow forum, shows how well managed and quick CS is tbh.
