Equipment
Alloy wheels, Michelin X tires, fire extinguisher.
Condition
#3 Good
Runs and drives well. Flaws not noticeable to passersby. Most common condition.
Chipped and swirled paint with stress cracks around the hood and fuel filler car. Rotting windshield surround. Road grime on the chassis. Typical erratic panel fit. Faded dashboard and fraying, lightly stained carpet. Good seats. The seats and tires have been replaced but the originals come with the car. All original, showing 6,458 km and fresh out of long-term storage, but nowhere near in like new condition.
Market commentary
If money is made on a car when it's bought this Stratos started out with a serious handicap when it was sold here in 2014 for $660,000 with a huge originality premium on top of its $450K low estimate. It has added 1,982km to the odometer since then. If this was indeed a like-new Stratos or if it was owned by somebody famous then holding out at the reported high bid might make sense, but for a car with this many imperfections the money offered was perfectly reasonable. It will take the promise of rally driving lessons by Kimi Raikkonen to make it worth what the seller obviously expects.
