Yes Adam, noticed that a few days ago..One of the few I would buy with tech cloth as I think it really suits the Cream interior and black exterior...I really like it. It looks well looked after but 04 cars are up for a little less as you can get an 05 for the money asked...But if its as good as the advert tells you then it may be worth more as its all about condition and history for me.

It is a nice one, reckon it'd be a good buy at about 24 k, it'll need timing chains service at 6 years won't it? Wonder what that's cost him per mile, 5000 miles in 3 years, mustve paid 40k for it. That next service which is almost due would be £3000 if u want to keep up the main dealer stamps, nearly £2000 at an Indy. Buyer beware of pretty pictures!

I thought timing chains were 5 years/60,000 miles, well they are on the F430 and 599.
Timing chains do not need changing.
Yes, its expensive but the guy had the sense to get it serviced on time last autumn despite having only done 1k in the previous year.
Its hard to tell from the service book which services are shown but those are the annual pages rather than the mileage pages. Hopefully either the 08 or 09 services were the 31k one? If that is the case then it will just need an annual in November.
Obviously the tyres could be flat spotted/too old but the car looks good and the guy has put thought into the advert. Someone might pay top dollar for a main dealer serviced car but the time of year will not help. Would obviously need a brakes/clutch check as that price assumes they have plently of life left.
