Condition 

7

The car is in very good condition with a few minor cosmetic issues noted on the exterior such as a chip on the bonnet, cracked paint and bubbling on the front wing, and minor rust on the bottom edge of the rear wing. The interior has some minor wear, like the ashtray easing away and surface rust in the driver's footwell, but is generally well-maintained. Mechanically, it has a clean service history with recent significant investment, though there is a small oil leak when stationary.

However, he says he was so...
