New to Maserati and been looking for some time for the right car, wanted a Spyder as I’ve been missing open air motoring.

So I’m the new custodian of ‘Doris’ I’ve never been one to name a car but she’s been cherished and it seems right to continue, looking forward to getting out and about and meeting up.

Running tips? That's a worry. If I bought a car and someone gave me advice on alternative methods of getting from A to B I'd start to be concerned...

Anyway, well done. Doris is part of the family so it's great that he/she/they* has gone to a good home.

*Doris' pronouns were never clear.

Welcome and congratulations on acquiring Doris….I have a fond memory of driving Doris on track at Bruntingthorpe. She performed very well indeed.

'Squiring'. That sounded wrong, so I looked it up.

squire
/skwʌɪə/
Learn to pronounce

verb
gerund or present participle: squiring
  1. (of a man) accompany or escort (a woman).
    "she was squired around Rome by a reporter"
    • DATED
      (of a man) have a romantic relationship with (a woman).
      "he was still squiring Doreen, his high-school sweetheart"
Turns out it may not be wrong, but it might clarify Doris' correct pronoun.

So are you saying Andyk and Doris had a fling at Bruntingthorpe and he cleared out her exhaust pipes during the ride round?
