Mate phoned to say an 04 light metallic blue coupe is broken down near St Chads circus central Birmingham....hazards on, not looking very happy....

I'm guessing this is one of those highly unreliable 4200s? Always breaking down those things... Should have the AA/RAC/GreenFlag on speed dial... bla bla bla

Place you bets.........

 

[dem maser]

Haha great nick!!

 

[dem maser]

A beer at the nov meet on me if its a 3200!!

I say its a 4200......

 

[BennyD]

Probably. Most 3200s don't even get that far!

 

[cobratwin]

sure it wasnt a Honda ?

 

[Mr.Cambio]

If the guy drives in auto mode, then it will be a 4200. If he has forgotten to replace the F1 pump, it will be a 4200.

If not the above, it's a 3200.

Its an 04 plate, so a 4200....

A low blow indeed...

 

[JDM]

threads like this make me sad...

 

[Woody]

threads like this make me sad...

Why?

What's the most reliable car you can think of? Right, they break down too.....whatever it is, if its a car, they break down.

 

[rotorheadcase]

I think the Honda reference was to the rear lights on a 4200... as opposed to boomerangs.

I hope no one takes these threads too seriously as the banter is supposed to be good natured amongst fellow Maserati owners...

haha....quite.

I'm looking to check JDM isnt sad about his/her car breaking down!

 

[JDM]

hearing of any broken down car is not something to be cheery about really.

I'm sure if the owner was on here we'd diagnose the problem as an ecu reset or blown fuse... chances are he'll get it towed to garage and billed for work that's not necessary.

 

[Parisien]

It could just be a flat tyre.......no spare...happened me once!

Bound to be a big end with one of those unreliable 4200s, engine out job no doubt, I'd pay £2k scrap for a few of the parts, the seats are probably ok as it probably did most of its miles towed..
