Condition
8
The car is described as retaining its original engine and gearbox, with excellent oil pressure and steady water temperature. It has a comprehensive history file and is UK-registered. The odometer reads 82,831 miles and it is MOT exempt. While the description does not explicitly state any damage or significant wear, the age of the vehicle and the extensive use by the original owner (50,000 miles in the first 18 months) suggest it's not pristine but very well-maintained and in excellent mechanical and cosmetic condition for its age, meriting an 'Excellent' rating.
