i must admit, i sell houses sometimes cheap, if its worth 350k and i have it on our website for 335k then you always get some people asking "why?" "whats wrong with it?"
well my answer to those people is, dont worry about it, just sit back and let someone else worry about whats wrong with it, to which i sell it very quickly (sometimes same day) to someone who has acted quick and got themselves a bargain....surveyor says "yes" to it so whats the problem?
you either judge from your pc or get out there and do some running around is my take on it......

What are your guys thoughs on the 4200's as a car?
I think it looks quite nice and the colour combo of this one is my cup of tea...

Calm down cowboy! Not sure I cold shoehorn two kids in the back... How muc boot room is there? Enough for two med/large case?....


I need to be sensible and if anythings happens to my Alfa then I'd be reliant on the masser until I was sorted, so the QP is ideal
, this baby looks the part though lol....

The chap has two cars up for sale, and some of his description sounds salesman like, do we think he's a trader or genuine personal seller? Looking over his transaction history looks like he might be a small time chappy who's trading but as a personall seller, the odd car here and there. Might explain the turn around if this was the other 4200.

I'm thinking of putting an offer in :)

If the car is not too far away go and have a look. If you are serious you need to see a few first to give you an idea

Cobratwin the 4200 is a great car...Driven a few and they handle well and go like ****...the face lift cars are the ones to have and this car looks very cheap so get all the checks done.....You will fit two kids in the back no problem...To be honest you can fit two adults in the back..They are very roomy for a Coupe.

if mainly for family transport then the qp, as will have isofix and likely better crash protection, my 3200ac may yet go for a qp, have a saab 9-5 and need another family wagon

I looked at several 4200's between £12k and £17k before making a purchase a few weeks ago. I put a lot of miles in up and down the country, out of the 7 I looked at I came to the conclusion there are some savvy sellers out there and you tend to get what you pay for. Definitely no bargains at dealers, close inspection will usually tell you why it's cheaper than similar examples.

Cheers guys :)
It's not going to be "used" as a car for the family as I have the 159 for that but tbh I've had the 159 a year and a half and the Family have Ben n it MAYBE twice lol... But the masser will need to beagle to pop the family in IF the 159 is off the road or an emergamcy so the 4200 sounds like it will cope well the girls are only 1 and 5 so not big yet but if the 4200 will take two adult ok then it's not gonna be a problem with the girls.

Ok let the search BEGIN!

This guy must be a trader, 2 cars for sale? Making a quick £2k for sticking it on ebay is OK if it sells, but I think it's expensive for the mileage and it needs rear tyres at £550. Last service done at just a normal garage, what does that say??

I just asked him a simple question and he goes off on one and starts to get offensive??????
