There are minor misc scratches around the vehicle. Normal for mileage and most too small to see in photos. The front bumper has scratches to the underside. Need to be under the vehicle to see these. The body seals around the vehicle show signs of age and wear. The exterior lights were working.

There is light wear on the seat. Normal for mileage. The carpet shows normal wear consistent with age and mileage. The climate controls were working as designed. The heat was hot and the air was cold. The window and mirror switches were working as designed. The windows showed no issues when opening or closing during the inspection. The seats moved freely when adjusting. The radio was working and the sound was clear.

The engine had plenty of power and there were no misfires or smoking. The transmission shifts smooth through all the gears and the clutch felt firm and no signs of slippage. The steering was responsive and the suspension was firm and the vehicle handled well. There were no abnormal vibrations or odd noises. The brakes were firm with no pulsation felt. There were no visible leaks found to the underside of the vehicle. I hooked up my Scan Tool to the computer system and found no current or pending codes. All of the live data looked good with no issues reported.
