In my mind the greenwashing is irrelevant. I’m just viewing them as a car, all of them are poor for the planet. What politicians and manufacturers say about them is irrelevant to me, it’s just noise that doesn’t impact my life. Although as I understand it, the emissions payback after...

I’m not young, and I already own a Maserati. Pretty much the only people I know that have a severe dislike to them, are those that have never owned one. I was a huge cynic, until I got one.

Maserati owners worried about depreciation :eek::p I was an EV cynic, until I got one. One thing that doesn’t get mentioned often enough, the good ones are really really good to drive. They don’t feel heavy even if they are, they corner well because of the low centre of gravity, and are super...

They don’t change anything major, like boot space, there’d be zero point in that. It’ll just be body trim that changes the length.

I don’t see the need. I’ll write in here where I’m drinking, then move over to the other thread to say what I’m drinking whilst I’m here/there. Seems perfectly sensible :)

Thanks, for some reason mine was £1200 . Current is £650, and that wasn’t shopping around, just updated current provider for car that the the Maserati replaced.

Just out of interest, how much was your policy if you don’t mind sharing? I’m 51, no claims forever pretty much and in a good postcode area. And the quote was £500 more per year than my current. And you can’t take products off, for example it comes with UK and European assistance, which I get...

I scraped a wheel on my Maserati. Anyone know a good spray for touching up an MC style titanium wheel? Or are they glossy black, I don’t even know the colour of them

Finally back home after all week in France, Eurostar let me down today big delays. Use TGV myself a lot, but not always perfect, especially earlier this year. They have one MAJOR flaw that lets them down, uber militant French drivers that couldn‘t resist going on strike 2 days a week!

Saw a beauty at a classic car show in Derbyshire a couple of months ago, looked great!

Morning all, France today. Just boarded the TGV from Lyon to Paris, so the French can demonstrate to me again how high speed train travel should be. We’ll be travelling at the top speed of my Granturismo…… :) And about enough time to watch two episodes of the new Justified series on Disney.

And one I saw at another golf club, bit of a pattern forming here.

This car is also always at the golf club, works in the “film” industry allegedly.

Found a few old ones on my phone. This one is John Lowes’, former world darts champ. He obviously couldn’t afford 501. He’s a member at the golf club I play at, apparently he’s a talented scorer, great pencil skills ;)

At Blenheim Palace a couple of weeks ago :)
