Hey All,
Very happy to join this forum, as a new member of the Maserati family.
My Italian Diva will be travelling to events around the South part of the UK.
The Diva is a 2008 4.2 GranTurismo in Blu Oceano over Tan w/Birdcage wheels & red calipers

Today I was at the Italian Night at Ace Cafe London, and this weekend I will be at the Surrey Car Meet in Weybridge at Mercedes World.

Looking forward to many happy miles and smiles and meeting like-minded members!

Cheers, Jeroen

Congratulations, live the life!
I'd been following that one on Autotrader as it is almost identical to mine and it seemed exceptional value.

Welcome Jeroen. I have the same model and year and I don't think the car could be bettered, for the price.
As a new owner, one thing might occur, that you ought to be aware of.
Sometimes, sellers pass on a car with a weak battery. So, if you're faced with an occasion early on, where the car
won't start, or even turn over and the dash lights up like the Blackpool Illuminations, the cause is often a weak battery that needs changed. It happened to me, the first time I drove my car and my heart sank into my boots, thinking I'd bought a basket case. Changed the battery and it never happened again. A few years later and I smile every time I think of the car.

.......and your first image proves the point that if you don't appreciate the Granturismo, you must be a donkey! :p
