Description from the seller, in Finnish.

Leimaa 6/2027 asti. Autolla ajettu 371 000km ja moottorilla noin 100 000km vähemmän. Perushuollot ja jakopää tehty n. 8000km sitten, samalla turbo vaihdettu. Autossa sekarengastus (takana kitkat, edessä kesärenkaat, tarvittaessa voidaan vaihtaa taakse myös kesärenkaat). Autosta löytyy webasto kaukosäätimellä, jonkinsortin navigointi, vakionopeudensäädin, sähköjakkarat yms... Paikkamaalauksissa ei väri ole osunut kohdalleen. Kytkinpoljin käyttäytyy oudosti liikkeelle lähtiessä (1 ei meinaa mennä päälle) epäilys että kytkinpolkimen päässä oleva pääsylinteri rikki. Autossa syttyy välillä moottorin vikavalo, herjaa polttoaineen lämpöanturia joka on myös vaihdettu, ei ole haitannut ajoa.
