Hello all, I've been tasked with putting together a feature celebrating the Maserati Quattroporte as it celebrates its big anniversary, for Auto Italia.
We don't have a date set just yet – getting a III and a I out in January/February will be challenging, and I'm abroad for much of it. I'd say we'd be looking end of Feb/March, at Wrest Park in Bedfordshire.

We're looking for a QP1
QP3
QP4 pre Evo (one for @Ewan ?)
QP4 'Evo'
QP5 pre facelift
QP5 post facelift (ideally a GT S)

There may yet be an opportunity for a QP6, it depends if there's still one on the press fleet.
Ideally we're looking for any cars that aren't black, though this will be a challenge. Anyone up for it?

Cars will be insured and driven respectfully. Day usually starts at around 9.30 and runs to 5pm at the latest and AI will provide refreshments, plus a copy of the mag when it's done...

Would be happy to lend my pre-facelift '07 QPV Sport GT for the day. Grigio granito with black interior. Wrest Park is about half an hour away from me, so a nice drive on a fine day.

No problem at all Nayf. You are welcome to my green pre-Evo QP.

Any colour you want... so long as it's not black? ;)

You're welcome to my 2010 QPV Sport GT S (Grigio Nuvolari with Sabbia interior) - pending resolution of some electrical gremlins, but there's bags of time between now and Feb/March...

Oi! What’s wrong with black, looks like it was ok on that last shoot! :)

Anyway, I’m too far for a salty run down south and I guess there are more that live down south anyway.

Excuse thread drift.
There use to be a chap with an immaculate Maserati Biturbo Spyder in Silsoe(where Wrest Park is)

Hello all, finally back onto this and I'll be getting in touch shortly.
Trying to find a QP1 and QP3 – before I contact the club/the specialists, does anyone have one and would be willing to bring it to Bedfordshire/Cambridgeshire?
