Hi saywellhq,
What excellent taste you have.
I'm just down the road from you in North Leicestershire, I have a late 2004 facelift 4200 (cc).
You're welcome to pop over and have a look and general chat about them, if that is if any help.
For your budget you will get a good choice of facelift 4200s.
Enjoy the search,
David

I think it was Parisien who posted this, several moons ago. The data seems to tally with several other sources I have seen - Useful clarification of 4200 05 facelifted model, on an outdated ebay auction...

2005 ‘Facelift' Model Differences
The main change is to the front & rear bumpers, the front is fitted with a horizontally ribbed radiator grille inspired by that of the Quattroporte. It is one that reflects the 'family' feel of the range. The rear bumper is also new. It is sportier and features wide air intakes shielded by a black, tight mesh grille. The link with the Quattroporte is reinforced in the Coupé with the placing of the classic oval and arrow Trident badge on the rear side panels, as styled by Frua in 1963.
With the Year 2005 model, the interior can be contrasted with different coloured leathers for the central zone of the seats, dashboard and upper door panels. The instrumentation boasts new, sporty blue and white graphics that are easier to read.
The seven-spoke rims are now standard while the fifteen-spoke rims remain an optional extra. The aluminium coloured kit on the console and the door moulding will now be standard.
Other modifications have been made to the interior with the central tunnel having been redesigned with a bigger storage compartment.
The reverse gear lever now has a D (for Drive) option for selecting first gear. To complete the changes, the new Coupé and Spyder models come with an extra metallic paint finish, 'Rame Ghibli'.
The CC gearbox on the 2005 4200 facelift model has an identical software setup, called ‘sofast 1+' to the Gransport,
The 2005 4200 facelift also has the same gear selection lever as the Gransport, allowing forward and reverse on this lever instead of paddle for forward, and incline brake assist.
The 2005 4200 facelift suspension software, setup and geometry is also identical to the Gransport

yes...spent two days to replace the pre-facelift on mine with the facelift one. (take a look at my signature!)
Once, i was driving in the early morning, and needed to brake, while steering and shifting down.... The coffee fell on the dash.... Spend half an hour on the road side, to clear the buttons one by one...
One week later, the cup holder (faceligt console)was fitted on my centre section..
