That again was my issue with the 4200. Plug in electronics. Routine stuff wasn’t an issue but 400 mile round trip was a pain.
Kept the biturbo Spyder and got a DB9. Sorry!! :-)
Lack of mechanic in striking distance in Highlands was why I got rid of the 4200. I had used Phil Kyle in Edinburgh but he seemed to pack in servicing and was doing car storage instead. Not sure if that has changed.
Ken’s in Kildary do super unleaded as does Tesco in Tain. (Although they seem to be sold out quite often!)
Ullapool has super unleaded as we organised an old Italian bike weekend there last September and we all filled up with it.
Guess there is a chance Tesco in Wick will stock it as well. Some...
Personally I don’t like the stretch on A9 from Inverness to John O’Groats and would cut off at Helmsdale and go to Melvich. That link is an improvement on the official NC500.
Sadly the road is now swamped with motor homes that struggle to navigate single track roads and as Highlander says we...
Welcome aboard. Few of us live on the NC500 route. Davidc was last 4200 I remember seeing in the area. I had a 4200 for a few years but now just the Spyder.

Enjoyed the film and non petrolhead partner did as well.
Cars looked and sounded fantastic
I have boxed full set of forum discs which I am realistically never going to need.
If anyone is interested just get in touch and in meantime I will see what shipping options are as I am in North of Scotland.
Cheers
My issue seems to be when it not fully up to temperature.
Starts ok from cold or fully hot but will sometimes die on lift off and reluctant to start when partially warm. Perhaps a different issue?
Great meeting up with folks yesterday. Left just before 3 as a 3-4 hour journey home.
Gremlins on way down decided to not come out to play on way home and biggest decision was hood up or down on way back. :-)
Thanks to AROC for organising.
