That's a better first mirage to own, much more Bulletproof than the standard 180. If your looking for 180, I wouldn't get it without kickup fins. The kick-up fins mitigate the risk of damaging the spine(305$).
For Turbofins, inspect the chain and exposed area of the cables for rust. Inspect the fins for tears. Inspect the drums for cracks. When the peddles are scissored there should be no binding sounds and alignment of all parts should look respectively uniform.
