That first one could possibly have been Frank Rowsell's car. I know a chap who's seen it this week.
Second car looks good value too.

Thanks chaps. Mine is the first one, bought from Frank in November 11. The blue is fantastic, especially if/when we get some sun.

She has a nice specification and has been much looked after by me and Frank before me. Sadly I've got a 34 foot motorboat being delivered from France and one of the toys probably has to go! Have to say though the GS has been an absolutely fantastic and reliable car, definitely recommend them to anyone considering.

Thanks. Just a petrol head I'm afraid!

The boat runs 400bhp from twin 6 pot diesels but will probably only do about 2mpg, so the GS is pretty economical! I think I'll be back-seriously impressed with Maserati in my time with mine.

You should be able to increase the fuel efficiency of your new toy by taking off all the old, absorbent anti-foul paint (which is like sailing with a layer of blotting paper stuck to the hull) and fitting a non-absorbent epoxy anti-foul such as "Coppercoat" instead. There was a good review of this in the Feb issue of Motorboat and Yachting magazine.

By the way, nice GS.

Thanks both. It is a great colour, will be sad to see her go.

Have seen the copper coat reviews, Possible item for the shopping list for the boat, which I will be bringing up to standard over the next month or two. She does weigh 5 tonnes though, so economy is never going to be a strong point, though less suicidal than if she had twin petrol v8s!

No prizes for guessing why. Its ok to be fair but you are always going to have sell on issues.

A lot of car for the money though.

Thanks chaps. Very much still for sale.....

She is a very straight car, drives well as is in my view. If a buyer wants the reassurance of a new clutch now rather than later that can be negotiated in. Equally if someone wants a good car at a lowish price level, with the benefit of a full main dealer history and new discs and pads, come and take a look.

I have an inspection report from a main dealer which I can share with any buyer to confirm overall condition.

If no one bites at this level I will keep her, she is a lovely car.....

Very cheap car by Nuvola's standards. Looks to be LE spec and is a 2007. I'd have had the blue leather bits recoloured professionally, but the rest of the car is lovely. Rare colour and nice spec with lots of carbon fibre goodies.
