Hi
The car is from New Mexico, so it is rust-free. It was dealer-maintained to 2002, which leaves an 11 year gap, but is still reflected in the condition of the car. Hopefully someone interested in owning a very clean, rust-free, original 318is will buy this.
As for me, I have both of my 318is for sale, as I have entered the world of Alfa Romeo. They're like more brash, less-convenient BMWs, and I'm in love.
