The bodywork shows no dents except for a slight poc on the rear trunk and the car is free of corrosion. The seller indicates that the driver's mirror glass is cracked. The plastics, exterior seals and headlights are in very good condition.

The engine is said to be in perfect working condition, starting well both hot and cold, having a stable idle and seeming to have full power. The owner says he uses only SP98 with additive. The 5 speed manual transmission is said to work perfectly, shifting and locking well in all gears.
The car has its 4 aluminium rims and its original spare wheel. The Michelin tires at the rear are new while the front ones are good but old (DOT 2009). The brakes are working properly and the upholstery is good. The car is said to run perfectly without any abnormal noise.
