1 owner in last 10 years, who had it serviced at the same time as MOT.  An ex-traffic cop & mechanically sympathetic.
A new MOT just done, & the car needed no prep whatsoever.
It only got wet once in 10 years going to a Toyota show, & this is largely why it's in such great condition. I can only assume that  the previous owners also kept it garaged, & Summer-use only.
It REALLY requires a garaged future. There are no dings in the bodywork. The paint has NO lacquer peel.  It isn't a machine-polished mirror finish, but if the next owner is diligent, this car could be a show winner. It shows the low-mileage & sympathetic ownership in numerous ways. The handbrake works nicer than any I've touched.  The oil is a year old, & did several hundred miles getting to Co' Durham, & it's still clear on the dipstick.  The engine bay is clean, & the subframe is excellent. The previous owner applied some waxoil/undersal to it & the rear suspension.
The hood is the best I've seen. In the last 10 years it was kept in a window-less garage, & the owner kept the hood up, but not tensioned, so that has probably stopped it stretching.  Two-tone leather seats look super, in my opinion - a  very rare option, & complemented by red leather in the door cards. It will come with black & red colourant. JVC radio/cd, plus the original one. The tyres were old, - looked very good, but the ride was spoiled. It now has a matching set of Falken ZE310, which are a popular choice on here.  It also has Zunsport grilles front & rear which are a bit 'blingy'for me,  but they do work well against the red paint. It also has bright strips on the inner door sills.  I already have a long term project car, & a scruffy 'daily'.  There's more to it, but I'm not diligent enough to keep this one in this condition, so it's for sale. £5990.  Advertised elsewhere including Autotrader, which has 40 photographs.

Indeed, same here, I get this:

Maybe trying to upload too many photos .

Correct.  I'll look into the imgur issue, - thanks for the heads-up.
