Should I try to buy a 4200 for sub £10k?

...well some of these cars do hang about for a while......however if its very good and it measures up...worthwhile looking at it, put a deposit on it and see how long he might hold it for you...worth a shot!

My old 4200 is still up for sale and it has only done 1.5k miles since I sold it. Blue one on E-Bay motors in the midlands

It had just been serviced by Emblem in March 2011, so will need an annual and clutch was at 69% but no slip and just a little spiggot whoot when cold.

It has been for sale with this dealer for 6 months, and before that 6 months with another dealer. Now at £12750 but it will never shift at that price as its what I sold it for, so you could give him £10k cash. Emblem will be able to tell you about its history.

Front bumper has be repainted since so no stone chips either

Thanks very much, I might be being stupid but I can't see it! Here's the results i found (if the link works)

I've found a car I really like. It is a way above the price bracket i originally had in mind, but it is the right colour (blue), the right interior (biscuit) and has been well looked after and had a lot of money spent. I'd rather go in for something like this than risk it on something cheaper and possibly with problems.

I'm going to view it soon and maybe, fingers crossed, will be able to do a deal.

It may be above what i should "sensibly" spend, but hey you only live once right!
