Description from the seller
BODYWORK/PAINT
The paintwork has been redone very carefully by the previous owner.
No major scratches or dents. Small impact on the hood probably due to a stone.
Slight rust traces.
The tires are in good condition but slightly cracked, which would not pass the technical inspection.
The manually operated windows are in good condition and work properly.
The chrome trim is in very good condition.
The grille is slightly damaged.
The side skirts are in good condition.
Slight rust traces in the front wheel arches, on the front bumper and on the rear bumper.
The door seals are porous (worn).
MECHANICS
The engine starts very well when cold or warm, with no abnormal smoke.
The belts are new,
The clutch disc, master and slave cylinders and the hoses have been replaced.
The starter has been replaced (see the invoice in the photo for all recent work).
No fluid leaks
The left front brake caliper is almost seized, the left rear brake caliper has been replaced.
The suspension is in good condition,
Some play in the transmission.
The plastic hoses are nearly worn as are the plastic fluid reservoirs.
The previous owner installed a 5-speed gearbox.
The diesel tank has been dismantled and cleaned.
The technical inspection booklet is in the trunk.
An original tool kit is in the trunk with the spare wheel.
INTERIOR
The interior has been completely redone: upholstery (synthetic leather), dashboard, door panels and carpets, all 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 when the clutch disc was replaced.
The sound speakers are original.
The clock does not work
The power antenna works, but it is almost seized.
The push buttons for ventilation/heating are almost seized.
The rest of the electrical equipment works, including the light in the glove compartment!

Disclaimer
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.
