Condition

In 2017, both the front and rear bumpers and the threshold widths were repainted. In 2022, a varnish seal was performed. Glass panes are described as being in good condition except for a small stone chip in the windshield. Moldings, chrome and lamp glass are described as being in good condition, but not the sign lighting, which has some cracks in the plastic. The rims are in good condition, but the right front rim has a slight damage to the paint of approx. 6x6mm. The tires are in good condition with approx. 5-6mm remaining pattern depth.
The interior is described as being in generally good condition, but the center console has two cracks in the panel. The chairs are in good condition without damage and with very little wear from the past years. Photo of the small wear that is, of course, can be viewed in the picture.

All electronics work as they should but the display warns of low voltage. The warning only comes at start and both batteries have been changed this year.
