Condition 

6

The car has been owned by the same keeper for 21 years and comes with a service book with 8 stamps, suggesting it has been maintained. However, with 112,000 miles and being a 1998 model, it's likely to have moderate wear on the exterior, interior, and/or wheels, potentially requiring some reconditioning.
