    Resetting Tyre Sensor - GranTurismo

    Have had a similar problem in the past. ' tyre psi all on one menu. Unfortunately as soon as I press + on this screen, it simply increases the dash lighting illumination.

    Granturismo as a Daily Drive

    The 2008 Grantusimo I'm looking at which I plan to use daily has 30,700 miles. Assume that's not too many miles for a car I wish to at least spend 5 years with? I'll be doing roughly 6,200 miles annually with it.

    Granturismo as a Daily Drive

    Many thanks for responses so far. Much appreciated. Good to hear most owners use it as a daily. My own situation means I just can't justify the purchase unless it's a daily. That comment about them chewing through batteries seems a bit of a concern though. I'd be using it daily on a 30...

    Granturismo as a Daily Drive

    Curious, is there anyone here who uses their Granturismo as a daily drive? Seems like many of the cars here in Oz have extremely low kms in an effort to keep resale values as high as possible. I assume cost of wear and tear/upkeep wouldn't be too expensive as all the GTs have the ZF gearbox...

    Maserati Granturismo - Ready to Pull trigger

    Hi guys. I'm very close to pulling the trigger on a 08 Maserati GT 4.2. 50,000kms. Car looks in pretty good condition inside and out although two small covers near the lights are missing. Owner says they fell off? Anything I should be looking for in particular?

    OZ QP and Grantursimo owners

    Thanks BL330 - Heard of and met with both those guys/outlets - was very close to buying a Maser GT off Road & Track. Good to know. Appreciate it. Chrisbassett: That's a good point. Would it make a difference give I'm still reversing - but just down instead of up a hill? More clutch burned...

    OZ QP and Grantursimo owners

    Sincere thanks for the replies and congrats for not running with the pack! VMSRTI, many of the new Granturismo owners changing over their cars regularly? A humbling experience indeed considering these cars are $300k+ new. :) Have driven a non-ZF Gransport and QP. Lovely cars. Unfortunately I...

    OZ QP and Grantursimo owners

    Hi all. Seems like the majority of Aussies here own the older Masers ie: 4200 and before. Any QP and Grantursimo owners here? Would be great to hear your ownership experience in terms of cost of ownership in Australia. Long-time wanna be Maserati owner.

    Thinking of a change...

    BigR. Send that Granturismo over to me in Australia. I'll be more than happy to take it off your hands for 35k pounds.

    Buying a Used Maserati Granturismo - what to look for

    Hi Batman, yes Sydney. If your friend is looking like selling on his 4.2, I may be interested. PM would be welcome. All the best. And thanks for the advice.

    Buying a Used Maserati Granturismo - what to look for

    Agree with you, but not sure there's too many examples, especially in our country, where a government is prepared to scrap an anarchic tax when it generates so much easy, lucrative income for them. Guess the bottom line is, people here will still buy them, even if they are strictly only...
