He probably is, but he needs to get people in to read the advert and who is going to do that with Maserati 3200 in the title?! :)

That's all right mate, give it your best as my Easter is pretty much sorted; I'll be in Barbados from Thursday until Easter Monday and when I get back I'll be taking the spyder across to Oulton Park with the SCD mob. :)

Are you looking at buying one Andy? If you could get it at the price it's a steal....

The ABS could be something as simple as phonic rings or something a bit more painful like an ABS unit.

The worst thing about these cars is that they dropped to the price where they are run on a shoestring and people panic sell them and price them in the territory like this where you think oh why are the panic selling a motor. Wheeler Dealers car was the same the guy was selling that as he knew it needed a shed load spending on it and couldn't afford to do it himself. I think the only way to buy these type of cars are from forum members who are fastidious about every little thing and keep on top of the maintenance and servicing etc. and don't scrimp on things like tyres, parts, etc..... There will come a point when the market is purged of the sh1te and only the good decent cars are going strong.

There's an ABS unit on eBay for £80 which needs a refurb (if possible???) otherwise, around £300-400 used. An £8000-9000 3200 will cost at least £3-4k to get up to the standard of the good ones out there. Believe me, I've seen a lot of them, the thing is it may cost £6-7k, and then you're best off paying decent money and saving yourself the hassle and the money.

Indeed if I was in the market now for one I'd be buying yours Dicky as it is already straight out of the box ready to use.

Always buy as good as you can afford, get it inspected, and keep something in reserve. Even so it can still be a bit of a lottery.
