Hello all, 2003 4200, 51000mls with some history. Owned by me for 2yrs. Second hand clutch from eurospares with 15% use and thrust bearing fitted last year And pis sorted. New rear discs fitted 1mth ago along with pads. Front discs in excellent condition. New front wheel bearing from soprano stu. Full recon of brake pipes and lovely braided hoses also fitted last year. Interior leather in excellent condition as is the bodywork, with no rust. Gs front bumper. 20mm rear spacers and 15mm to the front. There are some bad points- the passenger door has seen paint at some time and since the bearing fitted on front right, the abs light has come on along with the msp light. . Camber etc all sorted and drives, handles superbly. The suspension is creaking Some time. Mot is due on 28th may but the system here in n.i is so bunged up that the earliest I can get is 15/8. Based in coleraine, n.i. Private plate can be negotiated for. Original plate is LF53OJJ. any queries give me a bell, thanks neil. Price reduced to £8750 and its a gift at this. The gearbox light was a corroded wire, all sorted now.

So I have just had a very hard life lesson. Car up for sale, couple of Frenchmen came to see it. They done a hpicarfax with the result that it was a cat d in 2007. When I was buying the car 2 1/2 yrs ago I was so caught up in how wonderful it was and didn’t think to check. To say I was gutted is an understatement. Always check! Now left with an unsellable car:mad:

Ouch, any way to find out what the ordinal damage was? That might help you mitigate the size of the loss.

Did you do an HPI check yourself?

Surely it’s not worth much less anyway?

Auction it with a reserve , somebody will buy it , at 4 years old when written off it would have still had a high value so I'd think it'd have been repaired properly , probably with used panels which would've made it affordable.

With an mot I'd think it'd make the kind of money you're after , cat D with no mot and all those lights on, it'd probably sell as a parts car for less

Hi Neil, am I right in thinking it is a 2003 car but with a face-lift front end?
