Mike,
I am fairly philosophical about it... what will be will be....
I spent some time with an old Army mate yesterday, his mantra is "Did anyone die", well its not that bad then is it?
The good thing is, the longer it takes the more I am putting away!!!

May go into a GT 4.2 But have yet to drive one...I know...Need the GTS/4.7 blaaa blaaa...but again I want a nice GT type car so it may match the 4200 but a decade more modern.

Looks like the seller is now inviting viewings from those interested.......for sale to the highest bidder it would seem!

I have had a reply to my pm and email to that effect so looks like I am shafted as no way I could make it down to Salisbury before next weekend.

If the weather is good Saturday I could possibly fly to Old Sarum.

Looks like I will have to buy it off Dicky (lol)

Could backfire for the seller there's that old saying a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush !

There is someone viewing it today,
He is unlikely to accept anything other than good offer.
1 owner, serviced every year at Maserati and then specialist in pool.
Unless the person going to view is an idiot I cant see me even getting to view it.
Unless it suddenly appears at a dealers with 4k on it.

Well, still no reply, pm'd again to ask how viewing went. Any updates etc.
think flogging a dead horse to be truthful.

Nothing wrong with the 4.2 GranTurismo Peter. It gets blasted on this forum but I've driven one and at the price point they are now at they are a lot of car for the money. Go for it.

I said that Dave didn't I?

Does the guy actually want to sell it?

Not sure mate - but I am like a rabid dog so will try again!!!!

I think he puts it up every year to gauge how much its worth and whether to sell or not, he has 5 5 cars and obviously does not use it much.

I offered 20k to start with
He said would you like to view - explained I am short on time as going on holidays but would try to get there this weekend.

He had viewing Sunday and now nada!!!

He's full of it- if he really wanted to sell he'd be in touch, Placed a for sale ad, or it would have sold by now and he'd have said so.

Unusual for the seller, not the buyer to be a time waster!

Well,
PM'd again - Told him if I am traveling I need to finalise travel plans by Thursday.

Good thing on that site - you can check PM status - so I know he has read them.

If he really was serious why wouldn't he put it on pistonheads instead of a forum with a limited catchment area.
