Thanks for the tip about the maintanence though I wasnt aware they required such strict oil changes and what not. Price range is 5 grand I cant afford more than that so unfortunately a 426 is out my league for a little while. I was looking at some 250 but im a sucker for "bigger means better" and after taking both for a ride im sold on the 400.Thanks for your help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toca_rop Member 38 Member For: 20y 9m 1d Posted 14/09/05 09:26 AM Share Posted 14/09/05 09:26 AM You should be able to find a reasonable 426 for under 5 grand,my brother recently sold his for 4500 I think and that was about the going price, he paid 5200 from memory about 2 years ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
