Didn't have to go far at all - it was near Kincardine!
Actually... I didn't plan on getting one until next year. I went to see the project 4200 in Edinburgh (the green £7k car on autotrader) thinking if it wasn't too bad, I could save it, I liked the dark green in photos and red leather was my 2nd in line colour. When I got there I instantly didn't like the green, and the red seemed a little incomplete somehow (I think I don't like the red / black combo) then on the way home called about the one I ended up buying.
I knew I didn't want a silver car, and didn't want black interior, but if it was close, I figured I could have a look and get to know them a little better, possibly drive it. I got there, loved the way the combination of sun and silver enhanced the curves at the back. Condition seemed good (it's not mint by a long shot, but it's fine for now) Got in it, loved how classy the black looked, perhaps I was looking for a silver/black car after all...!
And that was my Maserati day. Go out planning a possible cheap project car, view 2 4200GTs in one day, but the one that isn't so much of a project :S
