This picture sits in my study and keeps me going through it all ...
Several years ago, the guys over on ML contacted the family of the artist, and were able to purchase copies from the estate.
A while back at a business Christmas party, I met some new people who asked me what I did for the company......
Loved it!

I was in the pub back along and a beautiful blond came up to me & said ‘there’s a rumour going round you’ve got a big co#k’
I said ‘I know...I started it!’ :saifi:

I did something similar. I just went to a pub in the town I'd moved to (having picked a pub I liked the look of), strolled up to the bar, bought a beer, took it to a table in the corner, sat down and started licking my eyebrows.

Never failed.

I'm really not trying to wind anyone up , I'm just being realistic , when I tried to PX my then running fine 4200 against a 25k QP GTS they offered me 6k for it.
I doubt they'd want a 2002 4200 at all today

To be fair the 4200 you bought was probably one of the cheapest available at the time, a high mileage example (100k ish), that you had resprayed but unfortunately the respray failed quickly in the usual areas sadly (I was sad to see this myself before you sold it, especially as the painter was a recommendation on here), plus you had a few mechanical issues along the way too that could be put down to mileage.
So your ownership experience wasn't the best unfortunately.
