The vehicle is described as being in excellent condition for its age, with recent mechanical and cosmetic work. The bodywork is in excellent condition, with certain areas having been addressed to maintain its fresh appearance. The interior is well-preserved, with minimal signs of wear on the leather seats and well-maintained dashboard. The service history is excellent, with 12 service stamps and additional invoices detailing further maintenance. However, there are a few minor stone chips at the front, and the mileage is relatively high at 97,970 miles.
