Condition 

7

The car has undergone a £40,000+ restoration in the early 2000s, indicating significant investment in bringing it to a high standard. The listing mentions that it is now part of a discerning 6-cylinder AC collection and has been driven lightly and carefully stored. This suggests that it has been well-maintained since the restoration. However, it is described as having covered only nominal mileage in recent years, and the owner has decided it is time for it to be passed on, implying it may need some attention to be fully roadworthy. Based on these factors, it appears to be in very good condition, with slight wear.
