Summary

The optical interplay of blue paint with red equipment makes the small car an absolute eye-catcher. The owner has invested quite a bit in the car, especially nearly 5800 went into the engine and transmission. Since then it has been in immaculate condition. After a successful auction, the car can be taken directly on the road thanks to current TÜV and a registration.

    Falsche Innenausstattung. Stoff überhaupt nicht original. Innen anders lackiert als draussen. Bekommt man nie wieder verkauft.......
