I think these are hard to price these days and if it is well sorted even with high miles surely a better buy than a lower miles one that needs sh1t load of work. From what I see of the show they do sort the issues out to a high standard and all in film as well.

They used Mike Roberts on the 3200, so probably back to him again. I think I know the car, was owned by a lovely chap who is a customer of mine & Marios’. It was always used as a daily and maintained with no expense spared. He sold it about 4-5 years back on about 105k and I think it was for sale at Rix Motors in Warrington for a while.

The MOT history suggests that it's been used sparingly in recent years with no real issues reported, whether that's because it was a sunshine car or problematic is anyone's guess. Although it's a high miler for a Mas it's not unrealistic for a 2005 car, especially if it's been properly maintained. It looks nice, and in truth you could get Ferrari performance without the Ferrari price.

One for the brave, or one for the lucky?

Tbh Phil my most worrying time for fear of problems on my car will be the end of next month when I get it out of it's Winter slumber having spent the previous 5 months in a Carcoon in my garage. After an hour of driving I will be relieved everything is the same as when it went in there at the end of September. Fingers crossed.
