The paintwork is uniform and the varnish shows excellent gloss. After a professional polish with an orbital machine by our workshop, we noted a few ultra-subtle paint defects on the bonnet, a few defects corrected on the rear wing edges and on the leading edge of the driver’s door. The chrome bumpers are perfectly aligned and in excellent condition, apart from some light oxidation marks. The front bumper caps are in good condition. The rear caps and the grille show a few light dings. The chrome mirrors also show some light oxidation. The LUCAS fog lights are in good condition and fully functional. The black faux-leather hood is in very good condition. Its installation is easy and its seal meets the era standards. The mica are also in good condition despite slight yellowing. This car is fitted with a black faux-leather hood cover in good condition. The 14’’ chrome wire wheels are new and their chrome knock-offs are in good condition, despite some scuff marks. The set is fitted with 4 new tyres. This car retains its spare wheel. Among the notable exterior/ body equipment and options are: LUCAS fog lights, 14’’ new chrome wire wheels and 4 new tyres, as well as the black faux-leather hood cover. Interior: The interior is well-presented. The black leather upholstery with red piping is in very good condition with a uniform patina. The door cards are also in good condition, with no scuffing or bulges. The door sills show some signs of ingress. The dashboard and its cap are in very good condition and were replaced in 2024. All of the SMITHS instrument cluster is fully functional, except for the backlighting. This car is fitted with a 3-spoke wood MOTOLITA steering wheel in excellent condition with no cracks or breaks. The MG leather shift knob shows even patina. The MP3/ USB/ S-CARD radio is fully functional. The Black floor mats are in good condition with no major wear or fading. Among the notable interior options are the 3-spoke MOTOLITA wood steering wheel and the MP3/ USB/ S-CARD radio. Chassis: On the ramp, the body is sound with no visible accident damage or structural corrosion. The boot floor was replaced in 2024. The basics: sill panels, floors, bottom of wings, wheel arches and longitudinals are in good condition. Service reserve: in principle we cannot guarantee these elements beyond their visible and functional condition confirmed during road test and on the lift. During the dynamic test, we did not note any abnormal noises from the body or suspension (ball joints, bushings...). Braking is balanced...
