QP Sport GT looks good value

I swapped my black/cream QP for a silver/black one like this, specifically because the silver/black combo is far more practical and still looks great. Silver is pretty popular as far as I can tell when driving around. Black only really works in London where there's no mud - here in rural Dorset black is a headache. That's said, my Range Rover is black...

That's a lot of car for the money.

Should you be concerned that the car has done so little mileage for its age?

5k more will get a 2009 GTS like mine with no clutch replacements. BUT, if money is tight and you're desperate to get into the marque then it looks fine.

"Service history" is vague.

I'm in no rush to sell it, and not advertised anywhere. Its not up for 25k here but to get someone into a good quality car, I'd be willing to help out and let her go for 25k.

I love the car which is why I'm neither here or there ref to selling. Although I was keen for a 4.2 GT based on pricing i've decided to wait for a nice 4.7 and a sale would help with that whilst giving someone else a bargain.

For anyone interested here, a full inspection is welcome and NI forum members like mark are free to look at the car too. While it was commented to be "immaculate" at the recent Italian Motor show, she is in very tidy order both visually and mechanically.

Best of luck with the sale. I understand why you are waiting for a 4.7 GranTurismo as a 4.2 is too similar to what you are driving. The used price difference saloon to coupe is annoying but it is there in many brands and is likely to persist at Maserati. Just make sure you get your right gearbox/suspension preference.

Cheers Bob,

I'm considering putting on PH but higher than listed here. This time three years ago, I was looking at 360s at around the same price I'm GT shopping now. Wish I struck when the iron was hot.

Depends on what you want, personally I do not like how mid engined Ferraris' drive. Not tried a 458 mind.

I'm not sold on the 458 it looks too compact. The F12 on the other hand, wow. I seen one in the flesh this morning, stunning!

It is a great looking Ferrari....

My ex brother in law had a 575M, 2005 I believe...He bought it from new and sold it last week.......It had around 3000 miles on it...What a waste....

Drove an F12 last year on a Ferrari drive day. I, correctly, walked past the 458 Spyder to get to it.

I have had dealings with sytner in the past. They tend to be on tight turnarounds for used cars. I would not be surprised at all if you could get another 1k off that price for a cash buy.
