    Thinking of selling my 2003 4200 - maybe

    Typical, I get my head down and work hard for a few years, avoiding the forum so I don't get tempted, then I just take a quick peep having a couple of shekels coming my way and this turns up. In my home town. Tell me it has sold.... Please???!!!

    4200 sale time

    I suspect the price has been edited out now that it's on SOR with a dealer. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Hit and run

    Don't waste your energy, someone reversed their Hybrid Lexus in to the rear wing on my XF the other before driving off, very big dent - they must have known. A witness kindly supplied their details but sadly lives in Singapore. Insurers made contact, other side denied, insurers won't push...

    What price LHD???

    They suffer from a lot of time wasters, and I believe some hostile false bidding, I wouldn't put much by it. Interesting about the values abroad, I'm going to Spain next week, I took a Caterham 7 a couple of years ago which is worth roughly double there, didn't expect a Maser to be the same!!

    What price LHD???

    Surprised I haven't seen it before!! My skills are lacking! It would certainly be worth having Mike give it the once over, but timing is not on my side, I go on holiday at the end of the week, come back in three weeks and then move house, new schools for kids, new job for Mrs Paco etc etc...

    What price LHD???

    Afternoon all - I've been a bit quiet for one reason and another but I'm still keeping an eye on all matters Trident from time to time - nice to see so many familiar names still here and loads of newer ones!! On to more important matters I might shortly have the need to change some of the...

    Forza 288

    I bought my 308 from an auction but found out it was entered by David from Forza 288, when I had it for sale at Beaulieu automart he came up for a chat, nice guy, the car was auctioned to me with a few issues but it was an auction car and not retail, certainly wouldn't hold it against him. From...

    Gran Turismo on Copart

    It was the exhaust I saw, plus the "runs and drives" logo, but that's no guarantee of how well it runs! On such a leggy car an exchange engine or box would be justifiable, maybe upgrade to a 4.7 while you're at it.

    Gran Turismo on Copart

    Leggy, but straight, it obviously runs, what's not to like??! http://www.copart.co.uk/c2/homeSearch.html?_eventId=getLot&execution=e7s1&lotId=19154213&returnPage=SEARCH_RESULTS#

    Is it me? Dealers posting phantom cars...

    And so today I'm going to see the dealer that did follow up having reserved the more expensive of the two suitable cars they have available. They will find me an absolute pussycat of a customer and I will cross refer them for their excellent service. Assuming it isn't a dog... Edited for feline...

    Salvage 3200GTA with no work required...

    hmmmmm!! Good job it's an auto, I might be tempted otherwise! Wonder what it will go for. Edited to add: the "hmmm" is the link, not very clear on this tablet thing!

    Maserati Ghibli 1993 V6 twin turbo... unfinished project...hhhmmmmmm

    I wonder if his decision to re-design it came before or after the impact that damaged the front bumper! Strip the filler off, the interior out, slap on a salvage bumper, blow it over and this could be a track day special...
