Condition 

7

The car is described as an 'honest, well-used, and well-maintained enthusiast's car' and 'not a concours trailer queen'. It has signs of regular use over 28 years including scratches and stone chips consistent with regular use, a small crack in the bonnet fibreglass, a small chip in the windscreen, and deteriorated stitching around the rear window. The driver's seat leather shows wear, and the central locking button in the console does not function. However, it has a comprehensive service history, a recently passed MOT with no advisories, and a recent chassis restoration. This aligns with a 'Very Good' rating, indicating slight wear visible but overall solid condition.

Owners regard it as a very rugged, reliable car, and a good quality example will be a joy to drive with a sound you'll never get tired of.
