CONDITION ASSESSMENT:         

EXTERIOR

"Paintwork" presents well overall for a 30-year-old vehicle - the Champagne Gold Metallic finish retains a reasonable level of gloss with light surface oxidation and minor age-related fade consistent with the year of manufacture

"Body panels" appear largely straight and free of major dents or panel damage across all four doors, front wings, bonnet, and boot lid - no accident damage reported and this is consistent with what is visible in photos "Front bumper" shows minor scuffing and light surface damage to the lower chin section, most notable in the front three-quarter view - consistent with general age-related wear rather than collision damage

"Rear bumper and boot lid" present cleanly with no visible damage; rear light clusters appear intact and undamaged with good lens clarity on both sides

"Alloy-style wheel covers" appear original and in reasonable condition with some road grime and light kerbing marks visible; tyres appear to have usable tread remaining but condition should be verified on inspection

"Chrome front grille surround" retains its lustre and presents as a strong aesthetic feature of this vehicle

INTERIOR

"Dashboard and instrument cluster" visible through the windscreen appear intact and largely original - the UCF10 Celsior featured a wood-trimmed, analogue-instrumented dashboard typical of Japanese flagship luxury of this era; no visible cracking or significant deterioration noted from available photos

"Front seating" appears to be the original light-coloured (beige/ivory) leather or leather-look upholstery, consistent with the Celsior's luxury specification; general condition appears reasonable with expected age-related wear

"Rear passenger compartment" reflects the Celsior's hallmark spaciousness; rear seating visible through tinted glass appears intact and unmodified

"Door trims and window surrounds" appear to be in keeping with the overall interior condition - no visible tears or damage noted from photos

"Steering wheel and centre console" appear original and unmodified; the Celsior's wood-and-leather interior appointments are still present

"No tools present" as declared; buyers should account for this when assessing the lot

MECHANICAL

"Confirmed runner" - the vehicle starts and is operational at the time of assessment, as declared by the seller

"Odometer reads 379,236 km" - high mileage for a 1994 model, though the 1UZ-FE V8 is widely regarded as one of the most reliable and long-lived engines in automotive history, with many examples surpassing 500,000 km with proper maintenance

"Service history is present" - buyers are strongly encouraged to review the service documentation in full prior to bidding to assess maintenance intervals, recent work completed, and any noted mechanical concerns

"A full independent mechanical inspection is recommended" prior to bidding, with particular attention to transmission condition, cooling system integrity, suspension bushes, air conditioning function, and electrical system operation given the vehicle's age

"This vehicle is sold as viewed, as is, where is" - all bids are final and Aides Auctions provides no warranty, expressed or implied; all information is provided in good faith based on available data and visual assessment at the time of cataloguing. 

All vehicles are sold voetstoots (as-is, where-is)- no warranties expressed or implied. Mileage readings are as indicated and not guaranteed.
No vehicle may be removed from the premises until full payment has been received and cleared. Rules of Auction available upon request.
