i followed the recipe and it said to put into the oven 160deg for 12 mins but after 12 mins it didnt rise, could it be my oven not accurate? after that i raise the temperature for about 10 mins it finally rised and looks like this but when i turn it on a plate, it broke and some stick into the ramekins but the center still melt and taste good. is it because i didn't grease the ramekins enough or something to do with the oven

Hi, I'm in australia and planning to buy a used car. The car that I'm targetting is Mitsubishi Magna 2.6L 4 cyl/ 3.0 V6. It has around 150,000 kms. What should I check, because I'm not that expert in car mechanical stuff. The car would probably be 1994s, 1996.
