Hi All,
Thought id say hello. After wanting a 430 since I first seen one back in 2001 I finally purchased a low miles low owner 2002 in Platinum Ice with black leather. I drove the 200 mile trip home yesterday still pinching myself that I've finally got one. I really wanted a 6 speed facelift one but couldn't justify to the Mrs the price especially as it's purely a weekend and nice weather toy.
The car has a few little niggles. Bodywork and interior are both in factory showroom condition but the drivers side wing mirror doesn't fold in or move up or down. Left and right, it's fine. The cruise control isn't working and it needs the front speakers repaired or replaced. All jobs for a sunny day or two.
I have a quick question on the wheels.the car came with aftermarket 18" wheels which are in mint condition but I noticed the rear tyres are 275/40/18 and the fronts are 245/40/18. Are the factory ones bigger at the back or is this a modification? I have ordered a set of facelift factory ones which I prefer and collecting tomorrow.
Here are the current wheels that will be going tomorrow.
Thanks
