What to check before buying

Check the factory mirror position, centre-lock or five-bolt hubs, and first-delivery market. Separate genuine as-built features from later changes, and ask for timing-belt and engine-out service records.

Single high mirrors and centre-lock wheels can coexist. Identify each feature from the records before using it to select comparable cars.

Documented auction results

If you’re deciding what to offer, start with transactions for cars of similar specification and history. Check the sale date, condition, and whether the price included buyer’s premium.

Selected source records in the original currency. Fees, specification, and condition can differ between sales.
