Domains:
Add www.maserati-forum.co.uk and www.maserati-forum.com domain names to the website as imbound links.
Branding and Factory affiliation:

The current thinking is that the have members attend events dressed head to foot in SportsMaserati regalia is “not cool” so merchandise will be limited to the following:
That concluded the forum section of the meeting. We then turned our attentions to the Centenary planning, which you will all be updated in a later thread.
