Condition 

6

The car has been refurbished but the bodywork paint is inconsistent, with the rear fenders and cowl appearing lighter than other panels. There's also a paint chip on the driver-side door, and the steering wheel shows cracking. The soft top is difficult to secure and may need stretching. The engine shows signs of leaking. Therefore, it has moderate wear and needs some reconditioning.
