Full Service history
Being upfront about known issues, so no surprises:
Occasional electrical fault: the boot sometimes unlocks on its own when unlocking the car or when the driver's door is opened/exited. Not a safety issue, just an annoyance. Radio has cut out on a couple of occasions.
Garage has diagnosed a faulty heater control panel as the likely cause (quoted ~762 + labour for the part).
Car drives and functions completely normally aside from this, heating works, this is about the intermittent electrical quirk. Service light is also on as a result of this.
Small paint scuff on rear bumper corner (photos included) and light kerb rash on a couple of the alloys cosmetic only.
Happy to answer any questions and would encourage a look/test drive so you can judge the electrical issue for yourself. Priced to reflect the above faults open to sensible offers.
