should be nicely loosened up , make sure the timing belt was changed at 60k and has always been filled with pd spec , 505.01 or 506,01 oil , usual stories , check shut lines , colours on panels , dents , chips , maybe a hpi check , make sure seat wear and pedal rubbers look ok for 64 k miles ,

buyer beware , and good luck
