Myyntiin ylimääräiseksi jäänyt siisti kuntoinen, bensa pihi octavia. Toukokuun lopussa katsastettu, korjauskehotus tuulilasin halkeamasta. Kahdet renkaat, hyvät Michelin kesärenkaat. Talvirenkaat nokialaiset tyypillisesti nastoja poikki. Sisältä todella siisti, myöhemmin kuvia sieltä. Kattava huoltokirja. Hyvässä autossa myös jotakin moitittavaa, 4 vaihde ei mene päälle. Ei ole ajoa haitannut mennyt usemman vuoden näin. Soittamalla lisätietoa! Vaihto ainoastaan rahaan!
