FS : 2005 Quattroporte DuoSelect

2005 Quattroporte DuoSelect in Grigio touring with Nero leather and silver trim. I've loved every minute of owning it especially with the beautiful exhaust note but the time has come to move on to a GranTurismo.

The car was originally owned by a Lord and upon his death he passed it to his wife who enjoyed it for a short while before her son became custodian. Ewan was offered the car around 2 years ago, so it has excellent provenance and Ewan actually helped Lord Redmayne spec the vehicle back in 2005. The original sales invoice shows the car costing £72941!

Since having the car I have added a nice custom exhaust and had 4 new tyres and 4 wheel alignment carried out so that the car drives as it should. The current mileage stands at 52,000 but will increase slightly as the car is in use everyday.

Price: £15995

Beautiful example, I've no doubt you'll sell quickly.

A lovely car and highly recommended. As Phil says, it has unimpeachable provenance and history. Though personally, I don't see the logic in having to pay twice as much to get a similar mileage GT which has the same engine, chassis, brakes, size, weight, performance, etc, just less room inside and a smaller boot. But I suppose when choosing a Maser, logic's not always high on the list!

Thanks Ewan, I have a hankering for a 4.7 GTS MCS so not really twice the price and a very different car but I appreciate the sentiment. I am in no rush to sell it at all as I enjoy it very much but I have 6 cars and not enough time to enjoy the others. I cannot wait to get the 3200 out of the garage and start enjoying her again too

Good luck with the sale Phil & it will bring you a step closed to the lovely MC-S!

That makes more sense. If we're to go down the GT route, it would also have to be a 4.7 MCS. They are sufficiently different to make the extra spend worthwhile.

But as it is, I'm off to see an altogether different option in two weeks time. Can't say too much yet (other than its an ultra rare and quick two-seater, and not a Maser) as its not officially for sale. I've just arranged to meet the owner/collector to see if I can twist his arm. But you're all in for a surprise if it happens. I think you lot are going to like it.

Frog eyed Sprites are not everyone's cup of tea though

However, if anyone is giving one away - I will make room!!!!

Already got a Sprite, Barrie! (Though not a frog-eye, admittedly).

Don't tell Benny it is a Citroen or there will be jealousy! Lol

Are people seeing pictures at the top of the first post? On my phone there are none but on my computer I see them.

No pictures on my PC Phil, just a space followed by the text and then the video

No pictures on my iPad

Fixed it now, Dropbox is ****

Now listed on other sites but rather it went to a forum member.

Car will be at Ace tomorrow so if anyone wants a look over it please come and say hello. Amazed that this hasn't gone already if I'm honest!
