What the photos show
- Silver paint has a smooth satin gloss and looks even all round, panels straight — no paint budget from these photos.
- Burgundy top is shown up and down: up it looks taut with a clear rear window, down it sits in a bulky boot — no top replacement budget from these photos.
- Chrome mirrors and headlight rings are bright; the ribbed aluminium bumpers are clean — no chrome money needed.
- Black alloy wheels are clean and tires show deep tread all round — no wheel or tire spend.
- Grey cloth seats with burgundy vinyl sides and headrests look clean and unmarked, matching carpets with red piping tidy — no interior budget from these photos.
- Dash top is uncreased and complete with radio and aftermarket wheel — no dash spend from these photos.
- Engine bay is shown repeatedly and is tidy and complete, with an aftermarket air filter and clean tins — no obvious bay spend from these photos.
- No underside photos in the sample — can't judge floors or heater channels, hold back money for that inspection.
Money: paint, top, interior and engine bay all back the $18,500 ask; the underside is the one must-see item this sample doesn't show.
