I “think”, tonight, at auction, I bought my 21st Maserati tonight - a QP IV V8.
But the storms caused electrical problems at the end of the sale, so it’s not yet confirmed. The auction ended early as a consequence. But only after the QP lot I had the winning bid on, so hopefully it’ll still stand. Time will tell.
The QP IV has long been one of my favourite car designs, and this will be my fourth. The best one being the blue car I used at my wedding, some 20 years ago, which I refused to move from in front of the red carpet at Claridges when Spanish King Juan Carlos arrived in his S Class Merc. Who has the temerity to request a Maserati be moved for a Merc?!!! (P.S. I’ve nothing against the Spanish royal family. But it’s a bit cheeky when the guests chauffeurs start trying to boss who parks where!)
