Ignoring the cosmetics, look how bent the n/s sill is.
I wonder how good it is mechanically?
Although it's a low mileage car, the general condition would put me off.

Good spot, missed it first flash through - so he's had a 'careful' go at both flanks; wonder what he considers as a careless owner

Shame as if it was mint and if the owner had given the interior a good valet, it most likely would have achieved close to the asking price.

But with all that damage the front bumper, driver's wing, both passenger doors and rear bumper all require a respray (assuming no other panels are damaged) and that huge dent in the sill on the passenger size will need cutting out and replacing. And the wheels need a refurb.
