Congratulations Dom! I hope you have many many miles of motoring enjoyment in your beautiful Gransport. I’ve also done the drive back from Chester in a car I bought from @dickygrace and it’s a fabulous feeling isn’t it…! 12 years is a very long time to have been looking for one, but while you...

IF you can get the PZeros warm before you really start to use them, they are actually a decent tyre… Having said that, when cold, they are slippier than a slippy thing slip sliding away…

This may be true, and I agree 100% that the prices of used Maserati’s in the UK are almost criminally low… However, I’m wondering whether the “falling prices and slow sales” rhetoric is at risk of being a bit overstated. For example, my Gransport is now sold, and it sold in less than 4 weeks...

Completely agree with this general statement. However, let’s not overstate anything… As has been proven time and time again, top quality cars will still sell for decent money, and there’s definitely a two tier market, with a significant price differential between the upper and lower ranges… As...

Now wouldn’t that be madness. Just imagine…. - a late 07 Gransport LE, - in the classic colour combination of Nettuno blue and beige leather, - with a brand new clutch, - a service history from Emblem, a highly respected Maserati specialist, - and being prepared and offered for sale by someone...

If only there was a really well-maintained, sorted GS currently for sale that had been fitted with a brand new clutch…

I recognise I’m not objective when it comes to this topic, but hopefully this is a good sign…

You are not wrong Guy… I was chatting to some other car friends about this… a Ferrari F430 has near enough the same engine inside it as a Gransport, has two less seats, is massively more expensive to maintain, and you need to buy some red trousers to fit in at owner’s meets! However, they are...

cheers! Hope all good with you?

Hey - I’ve just bought a 911 and if you haven’t done so already I would speak to Paragon… I mean this as the biggest compliment but they are (in my opinion) the Richard Grace of Porsche’s… they understand that reputation is everything, and I believe they only sell the very best examples

Hi - afraid not… my Gransport has been returned to stock, and is for sale with Richard Grace. link below: https://www.richardgracecars.co.uk/for-sale/maserati-gransport-le/592 The race pipes and the x-pipe went to Stuart at Trident Spares…

That does look very tidy… just imagine if it had the tan interior!

@philw696 - maybe you need to set up an import business buying cheap UK cars and then selling them to the French?

Yes - on the Gransport it opens the valves on the rear back boxes.

Don’t have any video or audio of it while driving - and would say it’s fine when not in Sport (ie when the valves are closed) However, if you are driving it in Sport mode then it’s loud, even if just cruising in 5th or 6th…
