What would you buy New Mk3 T Max or New Mk 4 T Max?
So , I sold my Mk 3 which I'd had for 3 years , now want another . Not sure about the Mk 4 , belt drive is an issue , and I have heard of no final drive issues with Mk 1-3 T Max models . New Mk 4 is £8800 , new mk 3 £6995 if you sop around plus my old akro will go straight on . Any advice appreciated !! Cheers

You could get a whole squadron (12.7) of Mk3s for the price of a single Mk4

Neither, I'd look for a decent Mk2, maybe a BlackMax.

MK4. You are spending a lot of money anyway. You might as well get the latest model.
I know for sure that if I was you and bought an mk3 I would most likely regret it after a year or two and would gladly pay £1800 to have an mk4.

There will also be a whacking big discount off that Mk4 I would suspect. Maybe £1000?
