Hi there,
the problems you can expect are endless, and things one would commonly not even dream about going wrong. If the 40 you have is the same (lack of) quality level as mine the additional insurance will pay for it in no time. Tie-rod ends, A/C, mirrors, tranny, seatframe, oxygen sensors, no-start conditions, brake vacuum pump etc. etc.
The car is very nice and fun to drive, but very poor reliability and initial build quality. They started making them in '96, it is sad evidence how they can be built that bad for that long....
