    Maserati Quattroporte Drive By Wire Enhancement Module - Duoselect

    So am I guessing no QP owners are up for a "quick shift" driving experience? Or have you all already fitted the enhancement!!! Looks like I'll have to try my luck putting on e-bay along with my other QP suspension parts. Toot toot all

    Thanks for all the positive comments guys, its both gratifying and sad. Gratifying that people from a different club should praise a car thats not Maserati, and sad that Ive had more positive comments from you guys, than Ive had from the Scimitar owners club!!! Too many of them are just too hung...

    Well Enz.... she's a bit of a brute I suppose, but you cant ignore 430(ish) BHP in a car weighing maybe a ton! Ive given many a modern car, including a few exotica a **** good thrashing Lol. The look on some of their faces when they are passed at over 3 figures in a 43 year old car

    Rules regarding road runs

    So did you arrange your road trips through a club? Or was it through the likes of this on-line forum? There seems to be some kind of argument about if things are advertised as "Club" events, or just a group of people in the same marque cars having a "jolly" to somewhere

    Rules regarding road runs

    Hi guys, I'm currently looking at organising some informal road runs within my classic car club.... but when I mentioned it. There are a few members that poo poo'd it by saying you need to get a MSA exemption (so that the organiser does'nt get sued if someone has a crash or similar). So I just...

    Random error codes and poor connections.

    Theres been alot of posts recently about battery problems. However, it sounds like your problem was due to the loose connection you found.... that would certainly give you "arcing" across the terminals, and the masser brain would definately see that as an error. I tightened all the + & -...

    Tyres

    Are you sure you've got the right car then Enz!! As I know are cars are very similar. I was tempted to take a very nice Diablo, instead of the QP on saturday... but then Roberto's always got a nice selection sitting in the workshops.

    Tyres

    Hi Guys, Just got my QP back from Grimaldi's after its MOT, new tyres and a bit of suspension work (Cheers Rob, great job as always). However, the reason Im writing is that Roberto at Grimaldi's had alot of trouble sourcing new rubber for the car. Seems Pirelli have'nt been making P Zero's...

    Any of you guys and gals taking a wander down to Brooklands Museum on Jan 1st, for the usual classic gathering there? I might take the Scimitar if its not pouring with rain/thick mist as it has been today round my way.
