4200 approaching 60K miles

[maserati300]

guys - i know these cars need to be serviced annually but can anyone tell me what the "BIG" service intervals are in terms of mileage and roughly what most indie's charge?

just want to get an idea of future costs i will need to bear

Thanks

Hi Marcus,

Nearest biggies are - 56000 miles £1580 incl VAT or 68,500 miles ....both main dealer costs......this one approx £1700 including VAT.

Indie do advertise prices.......aim for just over half.....or get quotes off supercarhub.com, need to join

Some main dealers will price match indie quotes if you want their stamp in your service book.

oh i see. i thought the 68K was more for the 3200....(but what do i know - im new to all this!)

so if i view a car with 60K and it's only had normal annual service and not a biggie at the 56K mark should i be worried or think more that i need to budget for it going forward. just want to ensure i buy a "properly serviced" car

Unless the annual mileage co-incided with the mileage service.......then in theory should be TWO separate services........within a defined period, some skip the annual if its near the mileage, you need to be absolutely clear on this.......7 yr old car with 7 stamps can be said to be not fully serviced in accordance with Maserati schedule.

We advise all buyers to spend £150-250 on getting an independent specialist inspection...can save you 2/3/4/5 thousand plus a negotiating aid.

Be careful....easy to be sold a moneypit.
