Its just been to Classic Le Mans, just turned 70k on that trip. 1100 enthusiastically driven miles with not a peep from any warning lights. This car runs brilliantly, probably because it gets used, not a "garage queen".. Gives 15 mpg in "enthusiastic driving" mode or about 22 if you drive with economy in mind.

Its one of the more desirable 2001 cars in Nero Carbonino (metallic black) with a much admired light greyish/beige and dark greyish brown leather trim. The interior is in much better condition than any other car I have seen, suffering none of the usual scuffed or torn leather or bubbling of steering wheels etc.

It's got the optional Skyhook suspension giving the 3 mode traction control/sport button to adjust the firmness of the ride.

Its not an Assetto Corsa, BUT its got a few Assetto Corsa bits such as the centre console and gear knob in carbon, the alcantera roof lining etc. Its also got electric and heated seats, electric folding mirrors and the stereo has been upgraded to include new speakers and a Sony head unit that an iPod fits inside.



Not that you need the stereo, the car has straight through rear boxes hence makes an absolutely gorgeous noise.

Mechanically, I doubt you will find a better 3200GT around. This car has no CEL's or other check lights, No Error lights, no dodgy oil pressure warnings or any other common 3200GT ailments. Outside the wheels are undamaged, the wheel nuts rechromed, and its got Pirellis all round with plenty of mile left on them.

Full Service History by HR Owen, Roberts, Autoshield.

Lots of receipts for work done, inc. throttle body, and many of the old parts which came off for the work done.

In the last 3000 miles its had:

Replace Cam Belt Jan-12
Replace Cam belt front idler pulley bearings Jan-12
Replace rear cam chains and guides Jan-12
Replace Spark Plugs Jan-12
Replace Thermostat Jan-12
Replace Auxilary Drive Belt Jan-12
Replace both Knock Sensors June-12
Clutch Replaced - Release bearing modified/upgraded. Mar-12
New Clutch Master Cylinder Mar-12
New Brake Discs and Green Gripper pads Apr-12
New rear tailpipes Jun-12
Oil Service Jun-12
New Suspension Actuator Jun-12
New Phonic Rings (Skyhook pickups) Jun-12
New (2nd hand) Suspension ECU.


Its obviously had lots spent, but this means there is much less to fail. I have receipts for all of the above.

Its got Tax and Mot until the end of the year.

It has the space saver spare wheel and tools (these apparently fetch £700 alone!)

The totally appropriate reg number is included in the price, but we can come to an arrangement if you don't want it (International buyers)

Inspection welcome by any Indi.

There are a lot of crappy cars out there in used dealers. This one is not crappy in any way and hence is worth every penny of £12500 to those on SM. No Offers. If it goes on PH it'#ll be up for £1000 more. But I'm not actually sure I want it to go. Perhaps £50/mo on another garage is the better solution.....)

PM if interested or call 07710 five two six seven three nine.

The Assetto Corsa didnt have an alacantra headlining ;)

Good luck with sale. If I were you I'd sell the spare separately...they're worth a decent amount, but unlikely to make any difference to your sale price.

I think he's changed his mind and decided to keep it, hence the winter coat and the search for another garage.

No Dem, for staying with Maserati. Now the hard work starts; trying to persuade him to move up to a 4200! :D
