Description from the seller, in Finnish.

Elämää jo nähnyt ja korjailtu polo tarjolla, ruostetta helmoissa (aiempi omistaja korjaillut) ja naarmua. Jarrut eteen ja taakse vaihdeltu samoin iskarit joka kulmaan. Nesteitä ei ole meidän aikana maaliskuu jälkeen tarvinnut lisäillä. Oli opetus autona, varsin soiva peli tähän kun poljin ja peili paikoillaan. En usko että leimalle olisi tekemistä hirveemmin. Kahdet renkulit ja koukku. Ilmastointi ei pelitä.
