All four corners are fitted with Michelin Pilot Sport 5 tyres, which have excellent remaining tread.

A DOT date code of 2625 indicates manufacture during the 26th week of 2025.

The bodywork presents in very good condition overall, especially considering the car's age: no dents or accident damage, with all panels presenting well.

There are two known areas of corrosion to highlight, one very small blemish on the driver's door underneath the rub strip and another around the inner boot lip.
