Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1998 Vauxhall Astra GTE, with 38,420 miles, has been recently restored after being out of use since the 1990s. While it has a fresh MoT, potential buyers should consider a 'shake down' period to ensure roadworthiness after the restoration.

Condition
6
The car has undergone extensive restoration work, including new floors, and the interior is described as being in very good condition. However, it has been unused since the 1990s, and it is recommended to carry out a few shake down miles. These factors suggest that the car is in good condition with moderate wear but requires some reconditioning.
