I definitely don't need 2 Spyders, the Karif looks very nice but white isn't really my colour even with the blue interior and again, not sure I need 2 Bi-turbo cars.

However https://www.handh.co.uk/auction/lot...0&au=529&ef=&et=&ic=False&sd=0&pp=96&pn=1&g=1

Anyone know or recognise this?
Looks pretty good from the pics and nice colour combo for sure , must be my Alzheimer's creeping in , those were not the standard wings of most 4200 gt , do they depict a manual car , did it sell do we know

The auction isn't for a couple of weeks and am seriously considering, same colour as my Spyder so would be a good match!

A rare manual with the Vintage pack. Although I'm not keen on the dark wheels it looks a lovely example of a 4200, and at no reserve. I'm almost tempted......

Very tempted Loz as I fancy another 4200, but I won't.

2014 QP GTS in black, with 54k miles, just sold at Historics for £17k. What a cheap way into 500bhp of Maserati flagship!
I've also been tuning in and out of this and was quite shocked at how low things are going, most of the auctioneers opening bid suggestions aren't being met.

I think it's becoming a buyers market at the moment, few bidders and not a lot of madness so low final bids, not unusual when money becomes a bit tight but I suspect there might be more softening over the coming year. The summer auctions will tell normally a time when prices are strong as people look for something new especially in the classic, sports and convertible markets.

Saw this and bowled over to the Historics hoping the Karif would be going for a song, unsold etc…
Nope, burst top estimate and went for £29k
