996 - purchase issues

[Irish]

Evening all,

Test drove a 99 C4 today.

The only issues I can find are:

Clutch is stiff/heavy, not in a Countach sense, just more presure required than my Boxster. Is this a sign of a failing clutch?

GT3 alloys, how much does it cost to get the edge of the rims refurbed?

Tyres, on is far more worn as a puncture on the other was replaced. I would have thought this is not very safe?

Generally:
God the front boot is tiny in a C4
Sh*t, the car can move.

All in all, very nice spec. Off to the OPC next week for a check so wish me luck.
