I'll try and go for it then cheers, I'll update later

Also I see that around the lip was a bit of fresh oil, maybe this could indicate the oil cap seal had perished and is letting in moisture? I wouldnt have thought the mayo would be caused by the crankcase breather hose as wouldnt this make the car idle like crap?

Recently I went to have a look at a 1999 MK1 Arosa 1.0. The bodywork was mint and I took it for a test drive and everything seemed perfect. (Gears, Clutch, Engine getting up to temp just fine and idle'd spot on) Upon further inspection I fount this: Now usually I would turn around and walk away at the sight of this but when I tried to take off the coolant cap it was stuck solid asif it had not been open in ages. After a bit of brute force the cap finally opened and showed coolant inbetween the min and max markers. The car did not smoke either when it was driven or rev'ed up. The seller of the vehicle was a old man who said he used the car to go to the shops etc. What do you guys think? Steer clear? Or give 500 quid for this 1999 Seat Arosa 1.0 MPI With a Years MOT and 6 Months Tax?
