Condition 

7

The car is described as being in good mechanical order and presenting very well inside, with some time-earned patina. The paintwork is generally good, though there is evidence of sinkage on some panels and light swirl marks are visible under direct sunlight. The chrome is very good, with minor dents in the rear bumper. The car has had over £67,000 spent on maintenance in the last seven years. The most recent MOT test resulted in a first-time pass with an advisory to monitor a minor exhaust leak. Overall, the car appears to be in good condition with some minor cosmetic imperfections, but it has been well-maintained and is reported to be in 'drive anywhere' mechanical condition.
