Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This is a Plein Air-style Renault 4 conversion, a rare and engaging classic car. Recent recommissioning work addresses some mechanical aspects, but there are minor imperfections to note, including non-concours paint and an inoperative dipped beam.
Condition
7
The car is described as being in 'very good, usable condition' with known imperfections such as an inoperative dipped beam and missing bonnet stay/jack. The paintwork is 'highly presentable' but not concours, indicating some wear. The extensive recommissioning work and excellent tire condition suggest good mechanicals. Therefore, a condition rating of 'Very Good' seems appropriate.
