Description from the seller, in Finnish.

Ikäisekseen siistikuntoinen. Ollut päivittäisessä käytössä. Paljon huollettu kuitteja, huoltokirja löytyy. Carsport sisustuksella. Liukuovi käsikäyttöinen. Ilmastointi vaatii huoltoa. Herjaa välillä nopeusanturia. Tuulilasissa halkeama, mutta mennyt katsastuksesta läpi. Lisäpenkkejä löytyy, mitä kuvissa ei näy.
