Service history and points to note:

Unfortunately, the service book was lost while the previous owner had the car, and only a few receipts remain from the service history. The timing system was reportedly replaced at around 246,000 km in spring 2021; a receipt is available, and these documents included with the car have been photographed in the listing images.

There are currently no warning lights illuminated on the dashboard, and the car operates normally.

Fault codes were read from the car on 23 September 2026 (report retained). As the codes were read earlier and there is no complete certainty that all repairs have been carried out, the report's observations are listed for transparency:

• Electric cooling fan (2EFE) and auxiliary water pump (A6D1)
