My new Auto Italia just landed....Issue 204 Feb. Whats the point of that, why not call it Jan cos it aint even Jan yet. Anyway they have the first road test of th new QP. Conclusion......Too big, too blingy, not sporty, interior feels flimsy, doors do not close with satisfying clunk, new auto...

New Gransport twin turbo with 650bhp, a big f... off spoiler, loads of attitude and will dominate gt3........place your bets gentlemen

Yep, got mine in the post about 4weeks ago. They all have an odd way of dating mags. New one arrives 4th Jan. Good articles on masers though.

I think you will find that is last months.

Amanda Holden I mean.

Nice body!.............

I had a DB6 new in 69. Back upto Newport Pagnell every other month. The engine was lumpy, the gearbox was slow and agricultural. It topped out at 135 max and handled like a boat. Nostalgia would say 'lets do it again' common sense says ....not bloody likely. Trouble with pre 98 masers is they...

I'll put my deposit down now if it was

Ferrari make 100%of the body, the entire drive train, the engine, the interior (although I suppose the cows had a hand in that bit), the painting etc and they also are responsible for the best bits in the maser

By the way I heard a faint rumour that the Ghibli will have the 3.8 twin turbo V8 with 540bhp and a twin clutch box transaxle set up on Bilstiens with a possible 2 door Cup version later. Oh yes please...............................

I'm keeping my 07 QP Sport GT duoselect because the purity stopped there. Plus they now boast the engine has moved forward to over the front axle giving near 50/50 balance, as if that's good. Maserati has to be obviously different not just promo words saying they are different. Agree with...

Just read in Auto Italia Montedezelamo boss of Ferrari at the opening of the museum to Pininfarina and Ferrari saying how Pininfarina had more than helped make Ferrari what they are today and here are the best of his designs .......BUT.........the best thing he has ever done was the MASERATI...

Any Maserati dealer will tell you, especially 'Meridien' that well used cars give minimal trouble whereas those that are used on high days only often have sensor problems and ECU related problems needing magic box attention. Annuals pick up this problem and keep the 'unreliable critisism' down...

These journos make me smile. The auto box on the QP killed the spirit of the car by reducing performance and shifting the balance forward. Only the auto in the QP GTS works well enough to be considered as the better alternative. Crappy drivers killed QP clutches and to discuss the merits of the...

Quattroporte Sport GT rears....2 x 285x30x20 Pirelli P Zeros. New but have been on car in showroom. Cost new £350 each but happy with £350 for the pair. Collect only but you can have them fitted locally and I will balance them on my super duper Hoffmann.
