Reckon that will cost more than the black Gransport Peter and no xenon's.

Looks like it may be a decent restoration project if it goes for a reasonable price. And just down the road. Will watch this one with interest..........

Such a lovely shape & will be saved by someone I'm sure. For me, I always preferred the Merak to the Bora - I just didn't like the rear treatment of the Bora when seen from the side but the Merak does it for me

It's a delight thanks Dave, it's out regularly now that the rain has finally stopped. Most things are working well also so I can't complain! I trust your beauty is still bringing a smile to your face?

Lovely shape.....but I really don't think they are loosing direction...Just staying alive...They lost direction back in the early 80's to be honest with the first bi turbo when they tried to take on BMW and failed.....Maserati started to find it's direct again with the Ghibli Cup and Shamal and then really came back with the 3200.

I'll keep an eye on this too, I dont think we'll see it sell on ebay. Reckon bid to 20k ish on ebay. Sills are just aluminium, we will probably see it re trimmed in leather in later life, those velour seats were also to be found in the Fiat Dino, and also trimmed in leather, for the Espada.
