3200 in Riyadh

[WGG]

Morning all,

I know that it has been some time since I last posted but since moving to KSA have been busy and also did not want to think too much about Maserati's as I miss mine a lot.

But was stunned last night to see a 3200 on the eastern ring road doing about 20km/h, as that is about as fast as you get to travel in rush hour. It was such an unexpected sight as this is the first Maser I have seen since coming out here, all the other exotics abound but not Maserati.

It looked a bit like a toy car surrounded by all the full size SUV's, this is one of the last strongholds for big gas guzzling cars that do about 10 mpg.

Currently got a Landcruiser and to fill it up costs about £6, one of the many reasons that I do not miss the UK, except of course not having a Maserati.

Hope you are all well and will try and drop in more often.

Hi WG

Hope your doing ok just talking to Martin & Phil (MP) about you the other day lots of chatter about your car here.

Have you thought of taking it to KSA?

Was back in the UK about 2 weeks ago but that will be the last time for a long time unless on business as I have taken up the position permanently, family coming out next year.

Would never dream of having a GS out here as the driving is diabolical, if you are not is something very large they basically try and drive through you hence the reaason that I am driving a Landcruiser.

Did not know of the chatter on the forum about the car, basically I have not been chasing MP and everything has been very low key, although when I was back did chase Phil up. Mainly the reason was that I don't want to sell and had it in the back of my mind that if I came back would have the car myself.

Now away to see what has been said good or bad, but at a guess will be about colour and mileage

Glad to hear things are working out William , after the daunting time last year , hope the family move works out ok , bit of a culture shock the saudi kingdom bit , tho hopefully its relaxed a little more since i was there , as a foreigner one has to be extremely careful driving out there , best of luck for the future William

William, I have had a couple of PM's from members asking about your car, and I have told them all to go have a look at it, as it is a beautiful car, cant seem to see why RED should be such an issue. If your car was around when I was looking, I would have bitten your hand off.

All the best for your future move.

An Aussie is enquiring about your car on the other forum, you may care to pop in and give him your sales pitch.

Good luck with the sale and the move

Cheers
