I've been looking for a 4200 for the past few weeks now and viewed / tested quite a few, I've rejected all of them for various reasons some rather serious . If any other forum members are considering these cars feel free to PM me and I'll share my research .

I can not stress enough how important a full top to bottom inspection is , on a ramp at a dealer / indi !

Absolutely True, an Independent inspection for £200-300 is well worth the money, it can save you a fortune and a lot of heartache..!!

The line I'm hearing the most often is " well it's fine if you want an inspection , but if it comes back with anything wrong I'm not reducing the price ! " oooookkkk then ..

So it has something wrong then..?? That's almost an outright admission and he will try and sell it with warts and all for the price he wants, good luck to him..!!

hi agreed, also looked at a few before buying, anyway don't know whether anyones interested but I now (very reluctantly) have my 4200 for sale, that im about
to put on pistonheads
it has dark grey paintwork/ black interior.

I bought it on 49000 miles, it now has only 54490 and I bought it in july 2012.

just passed mot without any advisories and I just put 6 months tax on it.

plenty of history:

had new clutch on 35000 approx.,

last service of £1232 had new radiator, just before I bought car with full fluid service,
clutch wear was measured at 34%, so at 54490 as I haven't driven it too much maybe 50% ?

issues:
tyres have some scrubbing, probably could do with replacements now.
one wheel has some kerbing, though only visible very close up
I have 2 keys with the car
paintwork is also A1 (car has been garaged between October to may for 2 years)

apart from that zilch and I have never not once floored the car from 0-60. any inspections welcome.

only problem is im in Newcastle upon tyne if you're a southern buyer . will take 12995 and can be negotiated slightly due to tyres, may take car upto 4k in exchange, wife 8 months pregnant so good reason for sale, but am not looking for fast sale.

forgot to mention car has every option, skyhook telephone card slot, full nav (2004 Europe and UK discs)

apologies if this needed to be in for sale section

thanks richard
