    Something Slightly Different! BMW Z3m coupe.

    On a bit of a break from Masers, and decided to try something slightly bonkers. I recently saw one of these at a show and fell in love. Ended up having a day trip from Edinburgh to Cornwall (dont!), resulting in the purchase of a Estoril blue bread van. I reckon this is the 3200 of bimmers! Any...

    Airbox for Gransport.

    Hello all, having taken off the front bumper to repaint, it appears that the airbox, which houses the air filter, is held together with cable ties. Apparently these are not available new so wondered if anyone had a decent spare available? Ta.

    Oh dear, I seem to be suffering from a bit of droop! The leather headlining of my Gransport is beginning to droop on the passenger side. Not particularly noticable but I dont want it to get worse. Any quick fixes and is there an in situ solution? I'm steeling myself for the removal of the...

    Banks Europa for sale on The Market

    Hello all, noticed a Banks Europa for sale on The Market. I've always been interested in Europa's but put off by the sheer Lotusness of them (you know what I mean!) This seems to be a recreation which aims to improve reliability and driveabilty. To be honest it pretty much seems like a...

    Heater Fan Stopped Working

    Hi guys, just been out in the Gransport and heater fan has decided to stop working! It's not clear in the manual which fuses to check. I've tried a couple in the passenger footwell for aircon but they seem okay. Any thoughts? Cheers.

    Never mind the quality, measure the width!

    Hello all, as I carefully avoid watching the rugby as Australia get stronger and more into the game, I wonder what the point of the sill extensions are on a gransport. They look so much bigger in real life and for the life of me I can't think of another car with a similar feature. Is there an...

    Auto 100, Nottinghamshire, Any experience?

    Hello all, has anybody got any experience of buying a car from this dealer? I'm pretty sure I've read something but not sure what or where! They seem to have a pretty good selection of cars but their business model is a bit strange ie full payment before a test drive. Cheers.

    3200 Hidden VIN

    Hi Folk, probably a daft question, but I'm trying to find the VIN stamped on the chassis. I've found the wee flap under the mat and it indeed has some of the numbers, but the rest are covered up under the sound insulation which is stuck down hard. In fact, the flap only uncovers the first...

    A right good thrash in the 3200!

    At long last, my first spirited drive in my 3200, recently bought from Ritchard. A great afternoon in the masser along the hill foot trail in East Lothian. Starting from Edinburgh and running through gorgeous wee villages and enjoying our wonderful Scottish summer (whilst it lasts!). Couldn't...

    Gransport Wheels on a 3200

    Having just bought a lovely red 3200 from Richard, I have given some thought to replacing the existing 18" wheels with the 19" after market Gransport wheels available from Eurospares. I have seen this in the flesh and they look the dogs proverbials! Just wondered if others and gone down this...

    3200 Clutch Replacement

    Hello all, I'm looking to buy a rather nice 3200 manual locally. It has a heavy clutch and wondered what the options are for replacing it? Do I stick to original Sachs or try an alternative such as that produced by the Maserati Shed? Thanks.

    Thats me back with Masser!!

    Following a year without a Masser it is back to sleepless nights, impending drama, high expense, tantrums by the road, occasional disappointment but ultimately huge reward and sense of accomplishment. No, not my 12 year old son, but a 4200 just bought from Crofty! My last 4200 was a great car...
