About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Thick, lightly textured repaint, good vinyl upholstery, good major chrome but weak trim. Ugly underbody with old undercoat, surface rust and road dirt. Superficially redone cosmetically but largely neglected where the sun doesn't shine.

Market commentary

Expensive to restore properly, this Mark II's seller skipped the difficult parts and left them to the next owner. It's not a bad car and can be driven as it is, albeit without much pride in its appearance until the neglected maintenance implicit in its presentation begin to impact its drivability. Fortunately the price reflects the faults: no harm, no foul.
