The car has only had three owners and currently has 89, 700km on the clock. The interior boasts black and red leather upholstery in excellent condition, with electrically adjustable and heated seats. The dashboard, centre console and door panels are all trimmed in leather, enhanced by body-coloured decorative inserts. The roll bars are leather-wrapped and the door sills are aluminium. In terms of equipment, it features chrome exterior mirrors, Xenon headlights and 18-inch aluminium wheels. The cabin features air conditioning, an auto-dimming rear-view mirror and a Harman Kardon audio system. It is also equipped with a navigation system, CD radio and in-car telephony. To take full advantage of the sound of the V8, it is fitted with a valve-operated exhaust system that can be activated from the passenger compartment at the touch of a button.
