Condition

Based on the provided description, the car has been sitting unused for a couple of years and will need some re-commissioning. While it has a history file with some receipts and relatively low mileage for its age, the need for re-commissioning and the 'sold as is' clause suggest that it's not in top-notch condition. Also the mileage increases have been very slow, from 86,211 miles in 2000 to 87,686 in 2012, which might lead to concerns of internal wear and tear due to age.
