Silver 4200 Manual on PH

[Scarlan]

At under 14k GBP and only 26k miles, this car seems too good to be true.

Does anyone know this car?

And only two previous owners. Is the itch coming back Stephen?

Good value if it's as straight as it appears. I'm not overly keen on the combo though. Worth a punt for someone.

Geoff,
Never lost the itch!
This seemed incredible value given the low miles and what appears to be good condition.
I would prefer red though!
Still need to sort out what I am doing with the Monte though.
I have not driven it since March.
Maybe a quick run his weekend if he good weather holds up.

Personally I would prefer a 2005 with twice the miles (and another colour).

Wait there I sold one of those for the same money a year ago...

It mentions nothing of history, if it's been well looked after, it's a cheap way into a 4200. I'm with Bigbob though, pay a little but more and get this, if it's up to scratch, great value car:

With a ppi of course!

Agree Dicky that looks like great value, is a face lift and and a much nicer colour combo imho. Grill looks to be home made rather than factory but looks ok (so long as the airflow isn't impinged).

Good value face lift.....would need to get rid of the mesh in the grill though........................

Just looked at the grille, a new mesh one is £350 inc vat. I have a spare louvred one if anyone buys. By far the cheapest facelift I've seen for a while at a dealership.

I viewed this a couple of months ago, it drove very well, the only concern i had was with the interior roof lining on the nearside where it met the black side plastic (hard to explain), it was just a really bad fit, like the plastic was bowed. It had the worn drivers seat bolster that needed repairing and the coating on the manifold was peeling off. One of the better examples I checked out and definitely worth a look. I'd have bought it had he considered an offer (slightly more than it's on for now).
