Engine and driveline – good power / responsive transmission / nice steering / brakes / etc. Suspension feels good under normal driving conditions, but at high speed / aggressive driving is showing it’s age…
Interior – good original condition. Wear on steering wheel.
Exterior – very straight with no rust. Paint and trim have held up well however thin paint on plastic trim.
Issues – thin paint on the plastic bodywork – particularly bumper covers & rocker trim. Wear consistent with age and mileage. Modest smell of musty / old cigarette.
