The car underwent a professional restoration in the past. The bodywork was repainted and shows signs of use and scratches. The underside is original and in good condition, and some work was carried out on it recently. The interior presents well and is original, with carpets in very good condition.

Technically, the engine compartment is in excellent original condition and the engine is in good, honest condition. The car has been well maintained. The clutch, gearbox and brakes work properly.
