Condition

The car has been refinished, indicating it was not in perfect condition originally. The description notes it is beautifully refinished, but the change from the original black suggests some level of wear or damage was present. The mention of paperwork including workshop invoices implies some level of maintenance and potential reconditioning over its lifespan.
