Condition

The car is described as well-optioned and sensitively restored by a long-term owner. It has low mileage for its age and documented service history, though some work is undocumented. The interior is refurbished, and the exterior is well-maintained, suggesting a rating between Very Good and Excellent. However, minor advisories on the MOT and some outstanding work (rear B-pillar trims) prevent a higher rating.
