The car has been owned by the current owner from 9,000 miles to it's current 71,000 miles. It has a full main dealer service history, the correct pirelli tyres, all the correct stickers on the hood/service book etc. So it looks like it's straight and been looked after.

Aside from an airbag light bulb, minor oil weep from the front end of the engine and slightly stiff reverse, it looks really very nice indeed.

As Marc said, there is supposed to be 2 regular keys and a thin valet key. The reverse gear actuation is supposed to be stiff, so that you clearly can feel the difference between putting the car in reverse and 1st gear when starting off from a full stop, or downshifting at slow speeds.
