Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This gold Vauxhall HC Viva Estate is a rare survivor with a preserved interior and an odometer reading of 37,704 miles. It's described as a usable classic that drives okay and comes with unused body panels and service parts, though MoT expired in 2020 and history is limited.
Condition
6
The car is described as a 'usable classic' that 'starts, stops and drives ok' with an MoT that passed with no advisories (though expired in 2020). The body panels are unused and the interior is nicely preserved. However, there is no history besides a recent battery receipt and some event badges, and it is explicitly stated that the car requires some reconditioning as it is a 'usable classic' and not in perfect condition.
