Computer says my car is a spider :S

My mechanic was looking my car up on his computer system. Enters the number plate and it says 'Maserati Spyder'

I noticed the same on a couple of insurance websites when gathering quotes..

I can confirm that my car has some features that, in my untrained opinion, do lead to a different conclusion.
Rear seats, rear side windows, a solid, metal roof that is perfectly integrated with the rest of the car to name a few.

Reg and VIN checked out on the HPI check.

Is this just another example of Maserati UK making things 'more Italian' when registering cars..?

Should I be worried about anything else?

Perhaps the roof blowing off at speed, or a canvas/mohair sheet falling over me as I get in the back? :)

Both my GranSports have come up on DVLA as "GranSport Spyder" it entirely normal.

If you check your log book it will say the same.

Yep any 4200 or Gransport says its a Spyder. the DVLA have just got the wrong description at their end .
