Description from the seller

CARROSSERIE/PAINT
the paint has been redone very carefully by the former owner. there are no major scratches or dents. there is a small impact on the hood probably caused by a gravel stone. there are light rust traces. the tires are in good condition but slightly cracked which fails the technical inspection. the manually operated windows are in good condition and function properly. the chrome trim is in very good condition.
the grille is slightly damaged.
the lower body panels are in good condition.
the door seals are porous (wear).

MÉCANIQUE
The front left brake shoe is almost seized, the rear left brake shoe has been replaced. the suspension is in good condition, the belts are new, the clutch disc, the master and slave cylinders and the hydraulic lines have been replaced. the starter motor has been replaced (see the invoice in the photo for all works recently done).
there are no fluid leaks; the engine starts very well cold or warm without abnormal smoke.
there is a bit of play in the transmission.
there are light rust traces in the front wheel arches, on the front valance and on the rear valance.
the plastic hoses are almost worn as well as the plastic fluid reservoirs.

the interior has been completely redone: upholstery (vinyl), dashboard, door paneling and carpets, everything is in good condition. the headliner is clean and in good condition.
the CD radio is new (with USB input) the tachometer does not work, it seems it was forgotten to reconnect it during the clutch disc change.

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
