Equipped with a 1500 cc four-cylinder petrol engine and manual gearbox, the vehicle runs, steers and brakes well.

Lighting functions correctly, and the vehicle has a valid technical inspection. No accident history or rust issues have been reported, making this a well-preserved and functional example ready for use or light restoration.
