    Same as Ewan I also got my first Ghibli from David in around 1999, a LHD 2.0 car from Italy that he drove back.

    Maserati specialist

    Mark Donavan at Prestige and Performance Car Services Ltd just a few minutes through Dartford tunnel. The man has a fleet of his own Maserati's and he's just a top bloke.

    Something 612-related I wrote a while ago...

    Something 612-related I wrote a while ago...
