5k 3200

[safrane]

Check out the black 3200 on the Maserati forum site. Worth that for parts alone!

Not advertised as a damaged one but has some repairs needed...nice. trim too

 

[allandwf]

I noticed that too, surely they cant get any cheaper.

Bloody **** that is cheap even with the bits that are not right.....If the pics are up to date it looks very nice.....

 

[mjheathcote]

Looks lovely.
Nice little project with still a low mileage late 3200 at the end of it.
Lucky guy to be able to use it how he has.

Prob good entry into ownership

At 5k rag it to the end of its life and even then you will get money back through parts


Go with 4,500 cash im sure it could be had

Wow, that is a seriously cheap car. Somebody buy it, quick!

 

[Parisien]

Why is it so cheap...........................?

[dem maser]

It dont matter frank

It obv needs loads spent on it but its prob not worth buying for keeping as if it needs 6k to put right you could buy a good one (or close to AC prices) at 12ishk.....

Buy it, use it, enjoy it and then sell it for cheap or use parts

I've bought the car, I'll be collecting tomorrow. It needs an actuator, the boot lock fixing and a couple of other things. It has a full history, albeit not all at Maserati. The owner was very straight about it so I'm looking forward to collecting. It's only done 50000 miles and is a great colour combo and it's an auto. Can't believe no one from here fancied it!

Nice one, Dicky. The early bird catches the worm. Looks like a lovely car which will sell easily once the niggles are sorted.

 

[Parisien]

There ya go.....well done DG...

That's a cheap car no mistake and if it only needs a few bits attending to, should make a good sell on Dicky, well done..!!

Well done Dicky...Looks a lovely car for 5k in the advert....Rare to see one with piping in a differnet colour as well.....

 

[dickygrace]

It was best offers over £5k, so not quite as cheap as some think, Dem's £4.5k was rather cheeky. Should have it later today so we'll see.

 

[BennyD]

Are you taking it to Autoshield today?

 

[dickygrace]

Are you taking it to Autoshield today?

I am indeed Ian, should be there about 3pm, are you heading there today?

 

[BennyD]

Possibly, so I might see you there. I'll speak to Marios after I've had a coffee.

 

[Parisien]

The car has now been sorted. I knew it would need a fair amount spending to get it to tip-top condition. It's had a full inspection and cambelt and full service and needed new pads all round, 2 suspension actuators, 2 shocks, an undertray, wheels refurbing, new wheel bolts, tyres and a boot lock solenoid. These are the sorts of things I sort out on lots of cars that are sold as being 'spot on'. The gentleman who was selling was an honest chap who'd looked after the car and owned it since 8000 miles, just had a few problems and he didn't have the money to sort them out. Luckily, I did.
The car has had 10 services since new and was always done at specialists or main dealers. It'll be advertised for sale next week and I'm sure it'll be a great car for someone. It drove really well as far as the engine and gearbox were concerned even before the work was done so I'm sure it'll be superb when I pick it up from Autoshield. The interior is the best 3200 I've ever sat in, Nero leather but white stitching and piping really lifts it well. Not a spot of rust anywhere and the exterior is stunning. Looking forward to picking it up and driving then photographing it next week.
To stop you all guessing, it'll be £13950, which I believe to be a fair price for a mint, fully inspected and warrantied car so hopefully I'll find a buyer soon.

Thanks to Peter for posting it up, we have spoken since anyway, but I'd already bought it the night before it popped up on here! Like Mark says, early bird catches the worm. I'm glad I was quick on this one as it's a lovely car. It's annoying when you miss out on one, but nothing better than buying a great car at a good price, we all love the buzz that gives us.
