Condition
8
The car is reported to be in excellent condition throughout, with only minor wear commensurate with age and mileage. The bodywork is in excellent condition with no signs of any big dents, dings or noteworthy impact marks, with only a few very minor dimples. The paintwork is in excellent shape with only minor stone chips. The interior is also in wonderful condition, having evidently been cherished throughout its time in Japan. There are no reported faults with any of the electronics or switchgear. Japanese cars are renowned for being in good condition underneath even at 20 years old, and this particular BMW is certainly no exception.
