Reading through the history (more invoices than stamps) is eye watering, but it's clear she's been loved.
Im sure if one was to carry out a survey , it would likely show that not many accountants or financial strategists own Maserati's , to a passionate owner it makes perfectly good sense though you might have to balance the books a little on the odd occasion to the missus though

She is fully understanding. I literally just said to her, people who buy these cars do it purely out of love.

I may have to be pragmatic at times when bills pop up, but I mean, I've even got Gransport Coil overs (that hardly have any miles on) fitted on this car, so many big jobs have been done already.

Even all the tyres are good, although the rears are date of manufacture 2016, but I'm not too worried about that right now.

I can't complain!!! Lol

To be fair , most women/wives are very understanding of our passions, I have personally have been extremely lucky , and this place made it so much more than just an ownership thing , try and get involved in a few regular meets track days even , take the missus along and she'll be part of it with you makes for an easy life

Went for a blast today on my local B roads, I'm amazed by the handling and overall driving experience. It handles like I wanted my RCF to, feels so light and nimble and wants to be driven hard.

First real impressions... the gransport must be flaming awesome because I'm very impressed with this!

Getting used to the cambio corsa box, but one time I seemed to struggle to select 1st from neutral for some reason. The gear shifts are strong and seem to push you into the back of the seat. The changes are so quick, almost like that of the ZF box in the Alfa Giulia I had.

Love it.

Be interesting to know which TCU software you have. Loved the early version, have to say
