The car has had a fresh paint finish in 2000 and presents as a very original and well-preserved example. The bodywork appears to be in great overall condition, with panel gaps aligning visually well. There are some minor age-related marks including small stone chips to the front. The paintwork presents in great condition with even colour and coverage across all panels, though there is a small area of touch-up paint on the driver's door. The glass and trim are in good condition for the car's age, with good window seals. The black vinyl roof presents in good condition. The interior seats and carpets are in consistent condition, with only very light creasing visible on the black leather seats. The dashboard shows no major damage. The odometer displayed ~22,509 miles. The steering wheel and gear stick are in good condition. Mechanically, the engine idles smoothly and performs as expected, and the suspension and braking systems performed as expected during the drive. The seller is replacing all four tires before the end of the auction for safety. While the car is described as well-maintained and presented well, there are minor age-related marks, a touch-up paint spot, and a mix of tire brands/ages, indicating it's not pristine but in very good overall condition for its age.
