Needs some work!
The wing mirror had me going! Thought it was some kind of snorkel!

I see it didn't sell. It got to £14,500 which was below the reserve.Finishes today, will be interesting to see what it goes for. The corrosion in the A-pillar would be a concern but generally decent looking, if in need of some TLC:

Yes, I can’t help wondering what the reserve was. From pics it looks like one of those cars you could either spend a bit on tidying up and enjoy, although the rust in the A-pillar would be a concern. Or, you could sink a chunk of money into to really rejuvenate it.I see it didn't sell. It got to £14,500 which was below the reserve.
Punchy reserve for an auto with issues then.I see it didn't sell. It got to £14,500 which was below the reserve.
‘Requires recommissioning’ which simply isn’t viable on these cars. The Ghibli GT @Nayf speaks of that we sold went for £19500 and another one we got up to standard at £15k; both proved that to get them A1 you’ll lose money. Buy one someone else has restored.This; again....! It starts to look quite tatty under the bonnet.

If it was <£2k and I had somewhere to keep it I’d be tempted. It might be the former but that doesn’t solve the latter.I do like the shape of the coupe but this one looks like it needs a fair bit of TLC
Although, this might not be the case in Europe where a good Ghibli GT will fetch far more than it ever will in the UK. Why that is, I'm not sure.‘Requires recommissioning’ which simply isn’t viable on these cars.

Well, in fairness if you’re looking for a sporty GT Aston and Jaguar would be the patriotic go to for a Brit. If you fancy a bit of foreign you go Porsche.Although, this might not be the case in Europe where a good Ghibli GT will fetch far more than it ever will in the UK. Why that is, I'm not sure.

I can understand why Maseratis of this era are so unheard of.
I’ll be honest, it’s part of the appeal.

This is now up for £12500 on eBay.If it was <£2k and I had somewhere to keep it I’d be tempted. It might be the former but that doesn’t solve the latter.
I think at this stage it’s a parts car, a useful one for the chap restoring the blue 222 4v I’d suggest
Slightly more realistic but again, a nice fully functioning ‘normal’ Biturbo (ie not a 222 4v/Racing) is not a great deal more https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/33511734...486&ssuid=&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPYThis is now up for £12500 on eBay.
He’s having a giraffe. He hasn’t even fixed the wing mirror.
