What a lovely rare unmolested series 1 Saxo VTS we have here.
Finished, we are told, in Almandine metallic red which is showing only minor age-related marks.
Regular waxoiling has preserved the bodywork and careful ownership has maintained the interior extremely well, which features the original radio cassette, glass sunroof and a parcel shelf with no holes.
A good service history including a recent oil service, cambelt change and a new catalytic converter should give peace of mind to the new owner.
A great starter classic that could be used every day.
