Condition

The vendor rates the mechanical aspects as “excellent,” and the paintwork, bodywork, and interior as “good.” The car had a full respray in 2014 and underwent a full recommissioning in 2021, with both aesthetics and mechanicals refreshed. The car has been sparingly used throughout its life. There is moderate brightwork, steel wheels are dressed in chromed hubcaps, and the interior is finished in various hues of red. There are no mentions of significant cosmetic or mechanical issues, suggesting it's in good overall condition.
