Classico 4200 with vintage pack

[Andyk]

Not heard of a non face lift 4200'with the vintage pack before. Thought it was only available on the face lift cars....learn something new every day.

I don't recall a pre-facelift with vintage pack being offered. It was introduced in 2004, so is right for the year of the car, but it should have chrome door handles - this car has silver, colour matched handles. I reckon somebody has just stuck the side 'grilles' on.

That's what I was thinking Mark. The only brochure I can see a reference to this pack is in the face lift brochure and price list.

Yep should have chrome door handles aswell. i looked at a couple of these when i was buying mine.Thought they looked tacky personally .

 

[MAF260]

Apparently they should also have ball-polished wheels and sky blue instruments. This car looks to have neither.

Shouldn't they also have a chrome grill?

All of the others are valid points, it seems to be missing a lot of the vintage pack bits.

My car has the very rare 'Vintage pack'- which means the car has chrome Side vents, colour coded door handles, silver break calipers and 18 inch Alloys.(all non-standard).

Yah right.
Looks like a previous has bought the side chrome vents.

It is feasible however that the chrome doorhandles were removed (peeled off maybe?!) and the ball polished wheels refinished, the cost to refinish being prohibitive.

This was the pack taken from price list....

Vintage pack - £2465
Chrome door handles, chrome vents in front wing, 7 spoke ball polished wheels,
aluminium brake calipers and chromed front grille with red accents in trident.

So was available on the early cars...Didn't know that. Not popular though as never seen one on a non face lift before.

Those side vents still don't look right, especially as they have no purpose just aesthetics.

 

[Andyk]

Yes, just stuck on.

Look on page 562 on the Maserati Spotted section. I took a photo of a classico 42 cab with a vintage pack

A member a mark had a coupe with the pack...He lent it to me for a long weekend and in return I cleaned it for him. Wouldn't pick the pack but didn't find it offensive. Looked OK when clean...

I went to have a look at a facelift 06 4200 with vintage pack when i was looking at potential cars. It was nice but not to my taste.

Not with those silly black seven spokes...as bad as what they did to my first 4200.

To me, the stuck on grille should be at the same level as the indicator light.

 

[mjheathcote]

To me, the stuck on grille should remain on the shelves at Halfords!
