Second one looks better presented but not sure about the tan interior with silver nor the black roof. The Silver and red combo is a nice contrast but it looks like it is in crappy car park

There are plenty of 4.2s about so take your time and as these are not the sort after ones so use it as a bargaining point.

Totally agree with Peter. These look a little Ropey. Try not to be too
Spontaneous- but it’s hard with emotive cars!
I would give Richard grace a call and ask his advice.
It’s worth a little extra for one from a reputable dealer with a warranty. An inspection
Is a must on cars like those... you could easily have a bill for 7-8k within weeks.

With the second option you'd need to factor in a little extra for a different numberplate - going round in a Maser with "SN08" is not a great start!

They look good at the price. Ask about variators, but prepare to fix a few niggles. Whatever, a lot of car for the money.

Silver and beige for me must be a middle aged thing.
Certainly variators and guides plus suspension bushes and road springs.
A good inspection or a good war chest.

First one I believe would need a service soon as it's got 4 stamps and a service is every two years.....The 2nd I would have to use a bit of moves to get rid of that black roof and thosetintedtail lights but some may like it. Get them looked at buy a specialist. You should this for any Maserati but even more so at this price point. Good luck.

Its hard to say anything about those cars going off photos. Both seem high mileage examples, auto 4.2 probably the least desirable in a GT. My suggestion is to see them in the flesh if they appeal to you from photos and after then, if still interested, book the chosen one for an independent PPI with a specilaist who knows the model and marque and therefore what to look for. Wait for the inspection report and then decide a way forward - including walk-away option. A PPI will cost £300-£400 but well worth it.
