@Nolasport yeah, sorry about that, I see how my comments can be misconstrued. From CarFax, I just see "minor" and the nI see Rear, Right Rear, Left Rear - whch to me, sounds a bit more than "minor. anyway, was just hoping for some clarification / documentation on the damage and repair. Still, as I said, it looks great
@DMM9510 absolutely! Only thing needed will be fuel and some coffee! Confident she’ll make a flawless trip to her new home.
Is it ready to go on an 800-mile road trip to its new home? Anything need to be done for a safe uneventful trip?

Just under 24 hours left on auction, please let me know if anyone has any questions about this gem!
@edgy4sure Straight from carfax, "Minor damage is is usually cosmetic, including dents or scratches to the vehicle body." I don't know if I would call that "pretty gnarly" but to each their own! I can tell you that the bumper does appear to have been resprayed as previously mentioned but both of the quarter panels meter out original and look original as well! Other than that the taillights could have been replaced but I'm not sure how I would be able to tell or why it would even matter. I do not have any records/photos/ or even any information on the incident reported, I hope this helps and that none of it comes off ill-mannered! Carfax really grinds my gears from time to time as a dealer, they miss a lot and even sometimes add things to cars that aren't even true, in this case the damage to "left and right rear" . And thanks for the kind words, she's been getting plenty of compliments in the showroom lately. Someone will be getting a very nice car!
Hi - the rear end collision sounds pretty gnarly, is there any chance you have photos of the damage as well as photos of the repair? Where was the repair conducted, and can you show what the repair invoice indicates (incl costs)? The repair looks like it was done well but it does state Rear Left, Rear and Rear Right which lends one to think it was more than a rear bumper cover re-spray. Regardless, good looking base Carrera in classic guards red. Thanks

Thanks for your reply.
Beautiful car!
It would complete a dream of mine!
GLWTA!
@rustynail58 Thank you, she is surely stunning! All records I have were just added to the gallery. Showing, oil services, brakes, plugs and coils etc... All other service documentation can be found via the carfax records supplied by PCARMARKET. The car has never seen the track and as it was a daily driver since new it was never been abused or beaten on under the previous owner. The car is absolutely flawless, absolutely no mechanical, electrical, or even cosmetic imperfections are present inside or outside of the vehicle. See the video linked to the listing for proof! The only other thing I can notate are that the front tires read 8/32nd's and have a production date of 4317 and the rear tires read 9/32nd's and have a production date of 0720. Plenty of tread left and would have certainly replaced them if needed when we had the wheels refinished. Hope all this helps and good luck to all bidders, I'm happy to answer any questions you all might have. Happy Friday and Happy Holiday's!
Hello,
