**ADDED BONUS PIC: 11,052 miles**

A totally mint, original, 10,800 mile, jaw-droppingly gorgeous 2004 MARAUDER!!!!!!

My day has finally come after years of pursuit...endless disappointments, failed transactions, you name it....My time has FINALLY COME.

First, I must shout out to the previous owner who posted this UNBELIEVEABLE piece of automotive excellence to the masses: WOODS4. What a COMPLETE GENTLEMAN!!!!! I didnt even drive the car, and i knew it was perfect. GREG, thank you so very much. I am so excited to own this car. :beer:

AND ALSO, last but DEFINITELY NOT LEAST, Blackened300A: Paul. He took this nearly 700 mile journey with me on ZERO SLEEP after working an overnight shift. You sir, are the ******ing man!!! :bows:

This car will remain stock....I will not do a single thing to it. Even tints are an iffy topic. I can not believe how clean this car is.

Without further ado, here are the pics!!!

Awesome car, Congrats Finally:beer:

[LANDY]

Great find! Congrats.

[DOOM]

A big :congrats: to you sir! :beer:


Enjoy the ride!

[a_d_a_m]

Damn dude. Might be one of the cleanest I've seen, certainly one of the lowest mileage. I think I'd keep the miles low on 'er.

[OneBADLsE]

Damn dude. Might be one of the cleanest I've seen, certainly one of the lowest mileage. I think I'd keep the miles low on 'er.

I seriously plan on taking this car out once a month, and on SERIOUS special occasions. Im never gonna use this car....It's too beautiful for words. You MUST see the undercarriage. It blew my mind :beer:

Pics of that will come soon! A detail day will be had in the near future

[OneBADLsE]

A big :congrats: to you sir! :beer:


Enjoy the ride!

Thanks!!! You're one of the people on here who have seen everything ive been through to get one over the years, LOL

[UncleLar]

Another nice low miles Marauder,Congrats.
But the real fun is driving your Marauder and meeting up to share the comraderie with fellow MM owners.

[Bradley G]

Drive her:cool: congrats

[martyo]

That is a beautiful car!

[Mebot]

10k miles? Holy crap, how are these low mileage marauders still around? Great find! Very clean! Best of luck to you with ur new car

Time to change your screen name to OneBADASSMM!!! :D

[mrjones]

OK, the Marauder is not so bad, but let's hear about that REALLY RARE Mclaren Capri setting next to it!

[MM03MOK]

Time to change your screen name to OneBADASSMM!!! :D

I can accommodate that!! ;)

:congrats: What a beauty! Enjoy every second! I'm sure you're cheeks are a little tired from all the smiles!
:D

[Ms. Denmark]

Congratulations!! Now drive her on out to the Fuddruckers meet next Saturday so we can all have a look!! :beer:

[SC Cheesehead]

:congrats:

Beautiful car!

Enjoy. :up:

[OneBADLsE]

OK, the Marauder is not so bad, but let's hear about that REALLY RARE Mclaren Capri setting next to it!

I do have a couple of pics of that! It's one of 22 ever made, and of about 12 that currently exist (IIRC).

[OneBADLsE]

Congratulations!! Now drive her on out to the Fuddruckers meet next Saturday so we can all have a look!! :beer:

Work owns me for the next few weeks... =( I wish I could!!!!!!

You don't even know the half of it lol :beer:

As Picard would say, "MAKE IT SO"

[CWright]

Congrats Bubba!!! That's truly a great find! Enjoy! :beer:

[boatmangc]

Nice, congrats on a really clean low mile MM.

[Roadwarrior]

Congratulations on buying a beautiful MM. :2thumbs:

[1stMerc]

Patients/persistence pays off. Congrats on the acquisition.

[Comin' in Hot]

That's an awesome score!!!!

[Curless]

Congrats on an awesome find! Oh and uhh how about some pics of the Capri's in the garage????

[tbone]

I'm jealous of that paint! Sooo nice. Care to share what you paid for that buggy?

You should at least put a tune on it. You can put it back to stock and no one will ever know. So much more fun to drive.

[bugsyc]

Looks like it just came out of the showroom..You should drive it to enjoy it and show it off..From one Queens guy to another ( Flushing)

[MOTOWN]

Congrats bud! you got a new MARAUDER!!!

[GAMike]

Well done!!! She looks like a beauty!!! Good on ya Paul for riding "Shotgun" too:D:beer:

[UncleLar]

I do have a couple of pics of that! It's one of 22 ever made, and of about 12 that currently exist (IIRC).

I have some pics of an 85 McLaren Capri drop top I took in 2009.Was #157 of @350.Was for sale too.
Black with gold wheels,wood dash and Recaro seats.
I can't post them here but if somebody would like to I can email them to him/her.

[Blackened300a]

Definitely a beautiful time capsule of a 2004 Marauder. Even the suspension part's look brand new underneath. Greg is a great guy and the kind of guy you would wanna buy a car from. All the cars in his collection even his 100K mile expedition are immaculate.

Best of luck Lenny, but next time I'll need a few hours sleep before the trip!

[HammerDown]

Patients/persistence pays off. Congrats on the acquisition.


WOW--Great find!!! Good luck and guess I don't have to say "enjoy the ride"--you already are:banana:

[Krytin]

Nice one Lenny!
Enjoy the ride - a true "survivor"!

And A big thanks to Paul - I truely understand what you did!

[Roadwarrior]

Definitely a beautiful time capsule of a 2004 Marauder. Even the suspension part's look brand new underneath.
I was going to suggest if you have the time & patience, to give your :camera: a workout to take detailed pictures of your newly acquired Marauder of the interior, engine compartment, chassis, factory markings etc. to be used as a reference point if someone in the future would want to restore them to factory stock, or to someone publish a Marauder book. :hmmm: :thinker: Sorry to hijack thread. :dunno:

[LOWBUCKMM]

10k miles? Holy crap, how are these low mileage marauders still around?

There is a old man that lives just north of me with a 2,900mile 03 marauder.

And great looking car you got. I'm sure you will injoy it.

[JoeBoomz]

Great pics of a mint car! Cloudy outdoor shots are perfect for bringing out the black luster of the black Marauder paint!

[RoyLPita]

:congrats: Lenny. Enjoy!!!!!

[SMOKE]

Congrats and I looove all the Capri's in the background (think I saw a white one as well)...I've got an '83 waiting for some love (owned it since I was 16)...wouldn't mind a garage like the PO of your new ride!

Best,
Jonathan

[jgc61sr2002]

Congrats Lenny!

[ncmm]

Beautiful Marauder indeed. . .I envy your find!
Welcome to the machine!

:burnout:

[crabby125]

wow, Paul put around 700 miles on his MM doing you a favor and he doesnt even say you're welcome????

What a scumbag :P

[crabby125]

all seriousness though, congrats on the new ride, Now sell me your 91 to me cheap.

[Blackened300a]

We took the old school pimpin Grandpa lincoln. No way was I taking my car out there.

[the_pack_rat]

Congrats.

A MM as fine as that would be most deserving of some hard to find official documentation.

More specifically ... some 2004 Mercury dealer showroom albums.

:D

[OneBADLsE]

Congrats Lenny!

Long time no see!!! I'm happy to see you're still on here. This car reminds me of your old car: BRAND NEW!


all seriousness though, congrats on the new ride, Now sell me your 91 to me cheap.

I'm in to that car for 2400...for you, $4200. :coolman:

I wouldnt expect him to drive his MM. That would be insane lol. As is, I don't wanna touch mine!!! Im afraid of something happening to it

[guspech750]

Sweet find for sure.

Now it's time for a S/C and really REALLY put on some miles :burnout:
