That’s a poor article, falsehoods and poor advice a plenty. The main one being that Bluetooth is the reason to buy a post ‘09 car, not the fact that it won’t require £4-5k of variator replacement. I do wonder if they approached a knowledgeable Maserati Indie such as Marios or Andy Heywood, Matt or Myles or just ‘made it up’

I did notice how brief it was but anything that inspires interest is a good thing.

There’s always loads of interest in them, very popular cars. We’ve sold 4 this year already.
I just edited it, just as I thought people may ask what was poor. Well, most of it, easier to highlight the small amount that’s correct

Isn't that our Dave Wells in the owners comments ?

I thought the same.

They also fail to mention how practical they are - a genuine 4 seater that can be used every day.

Wasn’t too bad an article, was too short to be able to give a thorough understanding of them.

I was in and out my garage all day yesterday and nearly 6 years on I still look at it and think what a bloody gorgeous looking thing

Guilty as charged. Interviewed through Facebook! I did plug the forum but he didn't include that bit.

Hard for anyone to get it right for us nerds.
Own mate Phil Bell put QP Sport GT on the cover of Classic Car magazine = big tick. The write up (about Pininfarina) was good but all I noticed was the detailed technical error.
"The 3200GT emerged with a cross-plane variant of the F136 V8"
The car that started my journey cruelly denied the link with pre-Ferrari days. Saying that any 3200GT with the F136 might be well regarded today.
