Other numerous old scuffs, old dents, marks (some small minor patches of filler), notably to the plinth base and bottom of the cupboard doors.

There have been some alterations over time as to be expected, possibly the base has been reduced in depth slightly as the top half over hangs at the back.  Repair to the central area of the moulded section running along the top of the base section, beneath the area where the two central doors meet.
