    Struggling sales

    Surely their biggest problem is that their current offerings aren't very good, are out performed by cheaper rivals and don't even have the character that would make them the enthusiasts choice anymore. The Granturismo is the only true Maserati still being produced and that's massively long in...

    Selling my Gransport

    After just over 5 years of ownership I'm going to be selling my GS this summer as I'm using it less and less and could do with the money to pay towards a house extension. I've absolutely adored owning it as from the first time I saw one it became my dream car and it more than lived up to what I...

    GranSport on the cover of Modern Classics magazine

    I read the article and really enjoyed it, there's a good argument for each of the cars and each have a unique appeal, though I agree the Aston is probably the best compromise of being able to be used daily and still being special, though the smaller engine ones just aren't quick enough IMO. It...

    GranSport on the cover of Modern Classics magazine

    I buy every edition of Modern Classics but I'm especially looking forward to picking up this one, it will be interesting to see how the reviewers felt about the cars. I would guess the 997 is objectively the best car of the three but it's the one I'd want least as weekend car, though it's the...

    Thinking of selling my 11k mile gransport

    That really is stunning, if it's available at £40kish then I think that's great value

    Gransport 20995

    Thanks for taking the time to give us your thoughts on the car, I think if it was spring even with the faults you mention this would've been snapped up, issues put right then be back on the market for £25k

    Gransport 20995

    just coming up to 73k, I think if I sold it in spring I'd get my £21k back, if I was to sell now maybe 18-20? not really sure but like I say even if I sold it for much less it would have been cheap motoring

    Gransport 20995

    Great value car for £20k, also I don't think these cars are unsellable at any miles you just have to price them accordingly. I bought mine 4.5 years ago with 20k less on it than it has now and paid £21k I reckon it's still worth roughly that but if I sold it for £15k it would still have been...

    Am I getting the right MPG?

    I once got about 23-24 once up the M6 at 70ish, when I then got to Scotland I emptied a tank in just over 100 miles which I think is about 6mpg, the latter was much more fun. as I only do about 4k per year the MPG doesn't bother me, when I used it as a daily for the first year it did grate...

    just coming up to70 :(

    Mine is on about 73k now, I think the engine etc will be fine for well over 100k, it will be the cost of replacing suspension components and such like that I'm sure will land me with some hefty bills. not too bothered about residual values though I must confess it helps justify the cost of...

    That does look very cheap, if it checks out OK it's a bargain

    This months EVO and Maserati

    I don't know if the Ghibli or latest QP are any good or not, however I have zero desire to own one and this has to be first generation of Maserati I've been able to say that about
