Condition 

6

The car has had a recent engine rebuild and new brake accumulator, but the ABS light flashes intermittently, indicating a fault with the brake pressure switch, which requires a recalibration or replacement. The paintwork has some overspray and underspray issues from a recent repaint, and the gear surround has been modified from original. Other cosmetic imperfections like minor wear on wheels or interior are not detailed but may exist given the age and a 'Good' rating.
