About this car

What the photos show
- Dark green paint is deep and glossy on hood, sides and rear, no visible fading or chips, so no repaint cost on what is shown.
- Gold mesh wheels and yellow inner headlights look clean and bright, no need to refinish wheels to show it.
- Patterned cloth seat fabric seen in close-up looks clean with no tears, so no retrim cost for that area.
- Dash centre controls and switches look clean and unbroken in close-up, no need to chase replacement trim there.
- Trunk carpet looks clean and flat with tidy seals, no need to re-carpet the boot.
- Can't judge the engine bay, no engine photo was in the sampled set, so check it in person before paying this money.
- Can't judge the underside, no underside photo was sampled, so a lift check is still money well spent.
- Can't judge the full seats and full dash, only close-ups were sampled, so check bolsters and dash top in person.
Money: at $127,794 the glossy green paint, clean trunk and tidy controls support a strong price, but the unseen engine bay and underside need checking first.
