Komia m-sport. On huollettu tarkasti 25 tkm välein moottori ja vaihteisto ja perä 100 tkm välein. Turbo uusittu 400tkm.auto on lastutettu niin liikahtaa aika mukavasti mutta pienellä kulutuksella. Pientä käytön jälkeä näkyy sisällä ja päällä mutta aika siisti kuitenkin kilometreihin nähden. Ei vaihtoa, vain suora myynti. Hinta sisältää alvin.
