On inspection we found the overall condition to be lower than grade 4.5, with some apparent deterioration since 2011 when it was graded as being in virtually new condition. There were a number of issues relating to how the car had been kept and it was not a show queen.
Surface rust was clear in numerous places as pictured. Not major in any particular place but would require attention to bring the vehicle back to top condition.
Roof trims a little sun affected and worn.
Paint peeling from engine.
Right rear quarter panel had been painted, but not replaced. Repaint was noticeable.
Damage to jacking points.
Airconditioner compressor was running but not getting cold, probably needed re-gas. Being an N1, we believe the airconditioner would have been factory optioned on this car.
Minor pet hair inside the car but no smell and easily cleaned.
Non-smoker’s car.
The extensive pictures tell the rest of the story.

I purchased an EVO VIII through you in July last year. Sorry it’s taken so long to get back to you but have been busy building the new workshop and then the car.
Just thought I would thank you for your efforts and let you know we are very happy with the car. It’s now almost complete and ready for its first rally outing on 21st Feb. I have enclosed a few pics for your interest and we will have the total build on our web site soon.
