Condition 

6

The listing mentions that the car comes with an MOT certificate, suggesting it's roadworthy, but also includes a 'Scimitar Parts List,' which might imply that some parts may need replacement or maintenance. There is no mention of the car's cosmetic or mechanical condition, so I rated it as 'Good' with moderate wear and the possibility of needing some reconditioning.
