Hope so, I'm in the market for one.

Good to see there's some high mile examples that are in existence.

Gives confidence that these GTs can handle big miles okay, as I'm planning to keep mine a while.

Wake me up when they are low 20's please.

I think there will be one long que when they reach low 20's, mind you by then we should be trading in our 3200's with cash our way

I was offered one trade for £28k some 6 months or so ago. Nice 58 plate with 40k odd miles on the clock. I thought about but wanted the slightly smaller/lighter package of the 4200/GS.

It certainly looks like the 4.2 is falling but the 4.7 seems to holding firm for now

Every car goes down in value if you use it. You can see that with the GS where the few cars with low miles have strong values but the others follow the normal financial curve. Trouble is as all these cars get older people say they won't buy them as the mileage is too high or if the miles are ok then there was a missed service four years ago and thus the car will collapse on the journey home.............

Made it to two years before it was dumped. Went to Italy mind within that period so not all bad!

Very succinctly put. And if there's low mileage, it won't sell because they need to be used.
