Morning all - after much deliberation I have decided it's time to sell my 4200. I've had her 3.5 years now, but with the arrival last summer of a lovely old 3-series convertible, I now drive that whenever it's warm enough to put the top down, and the new Tesla purchase recently means any longer journeys are now done in that. So I'm not driving the Maz at all (I've done only 900 miles in the past 12 months!).
Before I post an ad on PistonHeads and AutoTrader, I thought I'd post it here first. Any comments on the ad welcomed.
Anyway - here is the advert:
My much-loved 2005 Maserati 4200 Coupe, in Grigio (grey) with beige leather interior. CambioCorsa gearbox (that’s the semi-automatic F1 style). It has 43,800 miles on the clock.
I have owned this car for a little over 3 years, and have always looked after it properly, and done whatever jobs needed doing to it (I have a stack of receipts to show for it). However I’ve recently bought a bigger family car so this now needs to go to make some space on the drive. Also I realised I’ve done less than 900 miles in it in the last year, so it needs to go to someone who’ll drive it more.
- Drive By Wire Enhancement Module module – this cost £1100 plus fitting, but is a must on these cars. It vastly improves the power delivery curve and while it doesn’t increase the maximum bhp it gives it a lot more low end grunt and “a dramatic improvement in throttle response across the entire RPM range”.
- Custom exhaust system made and installed by Prospeed in Cardiff. This is deliberately not as loud as the aftermarket Larini systems, but still sounds far better than stock. It also has sports cats fitted to improve airflow. I still have the original exhaust backboxes too so it’s an easy job if you wanted to return it to it’s original specification.
- Factory SatNav
- 6 CD changer
- Skyhook active suspension
- Rear parking sensors
- Climate control/air-con
- Fully electric heated seats
- Electric folding mirrors
- Parrot Bluetooth phone kit professionally fitted.
- Falken 452 tyres all round, with under 1000 miles wear on them.
- 2 keys
- Full service history
- No accidents or other damage.
Everything works, and the car is in exceptional condition. There is only tiny blemish in the paintwork on one side by the window, but otherwise it’s completely mint. The interior is also in exceptional condition.
Clutch replaced 8,000 miles ago. MOT until Feb 2015.
