As Kev says, strut top mounts don't seem to rust on these like on old Fords so the fat that it has had them repaired is a bit worrying.
I was fairly sure that DLs only came with 1500 engines (The DL effectively replaced teh Minx as the bottom rung Arrow in 1970) but I've just had a look in some magazine cuttings (thanks SpottedLaurel!) and there's a later article that says they could also come with 1725 lumps. Perhaps this was if you got one with an Auto as per the earlier Minxes - if this was an option on a DL?
Anyway, if you get the car, find it needs too much but the engine is a 1725 I may be interested in it
