    Ghibli exhaust manifold leak

    I was inspecting my engine bay earlier and hoovering out the air boxes and generally just checking over the car. I noticed some sooty blackening on the passenger side of the exhaust manifold. My assumption is I’ve developed a small exhaust leak from a gasket perishing. Is this common on Ghibli...

    Ghibli/QP6 exhaust diameter

    Does anyone know the external diameter of the exhaust for Ghibli petrol? I am going to do a resonator delete but want to preorder the collars and stainless pipe to weld in place. I forgot to ask my MOT guy to measure it on Monday. TIS

Lots of A/B road and some awesome sports mode driving around the ‘mountains’ and a big motorway stint to get home in 5 hours of absolutely hammering rain. Overall averaged 29mpg and the car...

    Ghibli summer tyre recommendations

    Hi guys, I am on the hunt for some summer tyres, from what I’ve read the Pirelli pzeros don’t seem to be that great and last all that long in terms of cracking after a couple of years etc. I see a lot of you rate the Michelin compound of PS4 better, I get a bit confused between PS4, PS4s and...

    Finally Bought a Maserati!

    After a year or so of browsing and test driving different Maseratis, I finally bought a 64 plate ghibli with 33000 miles. Petrol of course. After 2 days of driving it I have to say It’s an amazing car for unbelievable value. I spoke to Matt from sports italia about some concerns and he put...
