Condition

The car comes in very good used condition. Renovations have not been carried out. According to the current owner, there is, among other things, very little surface rust at one edge of the screen. The condition of the glass panes is described as very good. Lanterns, emblems and moldings as well. The rims are also damage free.

The interior is described as being in very good condition. Unfortunately, as is common on the model, the ceiling sags. Instead of refurbishing this with replacement material, it has been pinned up. The interior is otherwise both complete and clean. The seats and door sides have survived damage over the years. Steering wheel, controls and buttons are all in very good condition.

Engine is described as lively and leak-free. Idle is a bit rough when cold, which is not unusual. The electric radiator fan is out of order and has not been troubleshooted. Under the hood it's nice and clean. The clutch and gearbox are also described as being in very good condition.

Service history

The car was serviced and checked in 2022. Among other things, the brakes, gearbox and driveline were checked. Even in 2023, the car has been serviced. All receipts are available since the car was brought out of hibernation in 2022. Original manual is in original plastic pocket! Two keys are included with the vehicle. The last inspection took place in 2022 and the car is now inspection exempt for the future.


Summary

Nice and low-mileage original car that wants to get out on Sweden's country roads again. Charming time capsule in just the right color and with an almost new car feel!
