Hi all,
Following on from my post last week, I have now decided to move on the MC Stradale.
I accepted the dealer offer albeit for GBP 2K less at GBP 57,500 as:
1) I need new tyres on the Strad as I have a nail in the rear that needs replacing. So easier that they take the car as is rather than me having to faff around getting new tyres only for them to then just pick up the car.
2) The shoe-in customer they had for the car decided they did not want a Maserati but they will take the car for stock resale anyway.
I do not really have any current photos as I dropped her off on Thursday to my body shop to have the front end tidied up to bring her back to perfection. Nearly 5 years and 22K miles on Nero Carbonio will always leave some marks so I am having the bodywork sorted so she is in A1 condition. I did not want the dealer to get the car and then try and knock some value off, so best to have her in as much showroom condition before she goes.
So the dealer is picking her up on Tuesday 15th October. I will have her back from the body shop next Friday evening the 12th.
If anyone is looking for a 22K Stradale in Nero Carbonio, you are more than welcome to buy her for a reduced price compared to going to a dealer. I have the years 4 and 5 end-to-end warranty on her which runs out at the end of Jan 2019 when she will be 5 years old.
I have had her from new and really loved my time with her. My 4th Maser and 3rd Granturismo after my original foray in Maser life with the Gransport in 2005. Highlights are:
- Nero Carbonio
- Red Calipers
- Full years 4&5 end to end warranty runs out in Jan 2019
- MOT runs out in March 2019.
- Red stitching with red trident logos.
- Carbon interior (can't remember the "pack" but does not have the carbon surround around the 1 and R selectors) including the carbon gear paddles.
- Last service was in March by Lancaster at 21,000 miles.
- Clutch wear was 27% then.
- No Bose - did not see the point to be honest.
Please feel free to PM me for any further details if you are interested.
Thanks for taking the time to read the post.
Cheers!
Stu
