That sounds like the Powersounder ttelling you it's on it's way out... Do a Google Search for Powersounder on this site and you'll see what we mean.

It needs removing/replacing ASAP as they have a habit of spontaneously combusting :o :o

Just as LD says - but it is an easy job to do yourself and costs nothing. 

So that in itself shouldn't put you off the car.  But the fact that the current owner ignores obvious faults might be a concern...  ::)
