Remarks
Radio has something wrong with it (all turns on but buttons don’t work and there’s no sound) I believe it’s the BT module in the rear, speakers do work so there’s an issue somewhere. The rear seat is stuck in the down position but I haven’t checked it out so not sure what it is.

Remarks
Reason for the good rating is because of the radio fault, also there’s a fault that comes up when you start the car doesn’t do anything to the car driving wise or anything I’ll write down the exact message it says when needed.
Vehicle History
Remarks
It was taken on the burnaby blue expedition in 2008 with Prince Harry, a 1 of 9 made car just for it! There was 2 out of the 9 that was made into an ambulance type support vehicle from what I found online. That means it’s changed from the 7 seats to a 5 seater with a sliding tray at the back.
