Vehicle Detail

Lightly used and in great condition. Clean inside and out. Very low mileage and little used. Hybrid battery replaced so good for another 10 years. New low resistance tires put on 400 miles ago. New air filter installed last week. Current fuel economy is 51.2 MPG. Runs great and drives great.On Mar-05-18 at 06:29:28 PST, seller added the following information: I've been asked several questions about the car so am adding more information. Apologies for the formatting. I can't re-edit my prior information to provide a better read. This is my first time selling with eBay, bare with me. Here is that info: This car has never been smoked in. It is a package 3 meaning that it has all of the safety features available (airbags everywhere). On the 2005 models, Bluetooth and backup cameras were not available on cars sold in America. However, the option to upgrade is pretty simple and easy to do. They can be added if you upgrade the monitor to the navigation system. It is not hard or expensive to do. I priced it at around $200. The paint is in great shape. No fading or chipping outside of minor evidences of use. The car is 13 years old but in very good shape. The seats are cloth as seen in the pictures. The color is gray. I read through the ownership information provided by eBay and for some reason there is an error. There have been three owners and I am the third. I bought the car in Sanford, FL which is just north of Orlando and why Orlando pops up I'm assuming. I purchased the car while I was in graduate school at the University of Florida to make trips back home (Tennessee) cheaper. The car has been in one accident though the information provided in the report here is not exactly correct. I was making a 5-point turn and backed into a median planting. The resulting mark is clearly visible in the picture of the car from behind with the back door up. It is not a loud mark. The car has no structural damage and everything works perfectly. I am not sure why the car had such low mileage when I bought it. My guess is it belonged to older people who didn't drive much. I bought the car in Florida and there are a lot of old people in Florida so it seems like a decent guess. When I bought it I lived at the laboratory (student housing) where I was conducting my graduate work so there was no daily commute to add mileage. When I moved to Texas I had it shipped so reduced miles added there. I also ride my bike to work now (when its nice out) so haven't added many miles here either. I am selling the car because I am moving to New Zealand. I've been offered a good package to start a PhD at Victoria University of Wellington. I looked into having the car shipped there but the expenses were unjustifiable. I'd have to have the steering wheel swapped over to the other side. That on top of shipping costs makes the idea impossible. I would not be selling the car otherwise. This has been the best car I ever owned and still is in great shape. As a last note, the current fuel economy as of this writing is 52.1 MPG average over 235 miles. Feel free to ask me any questions.Eron
