They all show up at once … I see that another couple of good looking 3200’s have recently been advertised, now that I’ve found one: There’s one in Barnsley and the other in Telford.

And another GTA showed up in Bolton this morning …

Looks nice, but has a poor MOT history. At that price I'd be talking to Nuvola.

The blue one in Barnsley looks nice as does today's red one which looks to have spent time in storage more than once.
A thorough inspection as always.

Yes, definitely, Nuvola recently had a lower mileage GTA for just under £20K but I missed that. I've just put a deposit on a higher mileage lower priced car, because it looks very genuine and well cared for with a FMDSH and over 2 decades with the last owner. I hope the PPI will confirm that. In the meantime, searching for new arrivals to the market has become quite a habit. I'll have a record of virtually every car in the country if I keep this up! ... Incidentally, does anyone know if there's a Register of UK owned 3200's on here or elsewhere?

FMDSH for 20 years... so 20+ services, that will be a pleasant surprise.

What would worry me about a MD serviced car is that the MD team don’t know 3200s anymore, and trust me you need a specialist with these cars.

The black auctioned car on eBay is the one you want….. lol

Just looked at that one which is a full restoration really and one for the Brave.

Yeh it's mine so get it bought.

I’d like to think that Meridien Modena knew what they were doing over the last 20 years … Which specialists would you recommend down South?

There's SportsItalia... failing that Emblem.

I would hope Meridien would have known what they were doing.

And if it's a 3200 he's interested in you can add the Maserati Shed to the list - although I believe he can be difficult to get hold of.

Very good point, forgot about Robert.

 

[williamsmix]

Yes, the Maserati Shed is the nearest to me. I had a very helpful chat with Mike when I was first considering a 3200. I’m thinking this will be my default go to place! … The website seems to have been down for a few days though, as I tried to look into certain servicing costs the other day, because I think they have these listed.

And yet another one up North in Skipton has just popped up for auction on eBay .. It’ll be interesting to see what it makes. Not my preferred way to buy one of these unless it was going at a substantial discount, which doesn’t always seem to be the case.

That write up is much aligned with my own experience.

 

[williamsmix]

That’s a very extensive write up. I don’t think the actual colour of the car is coming through in those pictures. If it’s what I think it is, that metallic green is really classy particularly with that choice of leather. Nuvola had one very similar to it recently, but I missed it. If I didn’t have a deposit on a car I’d be tempted to have a punt on this one!

 

[williamsmix]

This nice looking low mileage manual appears to be worth considering.

 

[philw696]

That one looks very nice indeed.
What a nice colour combination just lovely and obviously a Maserati enthusiast has owned it.
I would be having a chat with him to see where he values it asap.
