The engine shows active oil leaks. The engine should be pressure washed off and rechecked to verify source of the leak or all leaks. The exhaust system has an audible leak at the engine. The brake pedal feels soft and weak and have to be pumped to gain proper braking power. Further diagnosis is necessary. The engine had plenty of power and there were no misfires or excessive smoking. The transmission shifted as designed with no harsh engagement or slipping. The steering was responsive and the suspension was firm and the vehicle handled well. See below and pictures for more info.
