I test drove the car and made the following observations:

• Brakes grip well and appear to function normally.

• Clutch depresses fully, engages evenly and does not feel loose.

• Gears engage smoothly both up and down; no jerking was observed.

• Handbrake works well and feels firm.

• Steering tracks straight and the car does not pull to either side.

• I tested full-lock turns in a car park; there were no knocks and the tyres held the line.

• Headlights work normally.

• Parking sensors operate and beep as expected.

• Throttle response is smooth and the car accelerates normally.

• The air conditioning blows but does not produce cold air. The refrigerant likely needs topping up or the system should be checked.

• The radio works and sound is even from all speakers.

• There is some wear on the steering wheel.

• Two keys supplied.

• Electric adjustment for both side mirrors functions.

• Both electric windows work.

• Central locking functions normally.

• Doors open and close well without extra noises.

• Panoramic sunroof operates and opens from the button normally.

• A Sportback rear silencer has been fitted, giving a slightly deeper exhaust note.

• Lowering springs have also been fitted.

• Seat adjustments work normally forwards, backwards and for the backrest.

• Both the original rear lights and aftermarket darkened rear lights are included.

• Some rust is visible on the body, as shown in the photos.

• Summer tyres have approximately 5 mm of tread.

• Winter tyres have approximately 6 mm of tread.

• Service history can be found in the photos.

Overall the car appeared technically sound and drove well during the test. Points to note are the lack of cooling from the air conditioning, wear on the steering wheel and the rust spots visible in the photos. Otherwise the car looked tidy and all functions tested on the test drive worked normally.
