Ghiblis sell like hot cakes especially the diesel ones.
Why I ask myself in a city.
Here is a pic of a Ghibli diesel air filter next to a new one.
It's only done 6,000 kilometers.
I was shocked to say the least but modern diesels do breathe hard.image.jpg

Safe journey home Benny, hope some of it is even a pleasure!

WFH...or should I say sat here waiting for IT to figure out what's wrong with the works Lap Top which keeps sending me back to the RAS Firewall as there appears to be a hard-disc fault preventing windows from booting up... so 2 1/2 hors of the day already wasted...will likely say I need to bring it to London but without it I have no way to book a car or train to get there....grrrrrrrr

Morning all. Bright with blue skies in Kent this morning.

That's the plus point. The minus point is I'm totally knackered after a hard training session last night and there's more work to do than you can wave a stick at.
I really need to think about employing someone.

A positive note to finish on, I'll probably be in Manchester then Liverpool next Friday so may find time to pop in and see Mr Grace and his fine collection of Masers.

Morning all, sitting in the Sky offices in Osterley looking at the blue sky outside & Eurospares website while pinging out emails.
Few things to sort out on the car before Le Mans, should all be done this weekend with any luck. Might pop along to Brooklands on Saturday.

I was there yesterday at Harlequin on level 3 and 4. Small world!

Wow Phil looks nice, and the reg plate! :)

What were the symptoms? Just wouldn't start? Be interesting to hear if it is a crank sensor, failed throttle body, pedal pot or something more sinister!

Morning all. Super busy day today, lots to get done.
Typical that the council decide to do the drains right outside my office window!

And an energy magazine (online) want to do an article of the work we have done with Hilton Hotel Group. Nice bit of free advertising.

Morning all.
Phil are there any independant Maserati specialists in NZ?
You would not expect a 3200 turning up at a UK main dealer, they most likely would not know what to do with her!
