New owner questions
I am considering buying a 1990 RRQ 20V to restore as a rally/autoX car. it is not running but I have not inspected it yet, owner thinks it is either fuel filter or timing belt. Anyway I have a few questions.
1) How hard is it to find parts here in the US? Are there any shops you recommend for remanufactured parts if needed?
2) Anybody have link to a repair manual for this year/model?
3) Any general things to look out for, known caveats with these cars?
4) Most of my experience has been with japanese 6 cylinder cars. How difficult would you say, in general, is working on this car?

Not sure which body style you mean, but the UrQ 20V was not avail here so body parts are NA, but the engine in our bodies was here and some parts availability exists.
2) Anybody have link to a repair manual for this year/model?
Bentley had paper manuals for the US 20V avant and sedan
3) Any general things to look out for, known caveats with these cars?
