The car is described as being finished in Grey-Green metallic, which presents extremely well. It has very low mileage (18,000 miles) and has been in long-term storage at Haliwell Jones BMW. Although it had a cylinder head overhaul in 2022, this was due to a reported misfire and has been repaired. The car's overall solid condition, minimal cosmetic imperfections, and lack of dents or paint damage warrant an excellent rating.
