A bit of a jetwash and a photo while wet does wonders for photos! It may have been garaged for most of it's life, but as it's 26 years old, it could have stood there for 5 to 10 years and still spent most of it's life garaged! A car has stood unmoved on that spot for months and it's the most likely contender at the moment, the moss shadow fits like a glove.

Despite this, it does 'look' pretty clean.

It looks in pretty good condition, £395 isn't too bad, although that's about what I paid for my '85 vario with a full MOT...
