Confused...How do you know its the same one ... On the advert the number plate is covered up by the dealers name...
Because I'm good Andy, you know that! LOL!

Seriously, it is the same one. Same age, same interior, same miles, same nero dash top....and with only 24 GS Spyders in the UK, there can't be too many nero/avorio's around (even though there are two for sale at the moment! My total guess is that there are only two nero/avorio Spyders in the UK).

I just cant believe there is only 24 GS Spyders in the u.k. Be interwsting to see how many there are of each colour, i know there is one yellow for definate and probably only one red one.

I can Adam ... Came out right at the end of the GS/4200 run .... People did not buy them as they new car was on the way and the Spyder by then was an old car with scuttle shake.......Maserati never planned to sell many to be honest, remember the anniversary...A car Maserati just couldn't shift...... Plus there was probably better cars out there for the money at the time....I do love it though.

i would be tempted to buy an anniversary at the right price, i bet there is not much difference in terms of handling between a 4200 and a GS. When did the GS Spyder and anniversary come out?? 2007??

GS is a better car than 4200 .... Remember the review in EVO and they said it handled better than the 4200 and although there was still shake it was a nice car to cruise in..

I look at that Yellow GS Spyder on my wall everyday, looking at it right now, couldn't tell you how much i want it.



That anniversary in Meridien, the more i see it, the more i want it, it looks gorgeous. I know it is based on a 4200 but lower it 10mm like a GS and it would handle just as good as a GS i bet.

Adam, according to Mario at Autoshield, apparently just lowering a 4200 by 10mm wrecks the ride and roadholding. Far better to put in the GS springs and then drop it by 10mm. I'm going to do that in the near future to try and keep a semblance of control after the remap!

Correct, just one yellow spyder.

There are three yellow GS Coupes though!

ETA - three red sypders - two Rosso Mondial, one Rosso Bologna (is that a UK car on your avatar?)

3, i know of 2, One has tech cloth and the other has full leather (Andy looked at the full leather one)
Sorry, I edited the above to include the info on the red cars too.

Yep, three Giallo's - 2004, a 2005 and a 2007. I don't know what the interiors are, sorry.

3 Red Spyder's didn't think that many, no Woody it is a U.S car, i take it that is Rosso Bologna, i have some pics of it somewhere, will dig 'em out now.

The Yellow Spyder is an 07 reg, got a pic of it on my wall.

i think the 2004 is Tech Cloth, i have an old evo magazine with meridien's ad in it, they had a Yellow one in and it had tech cloth, think it is a 54 reg.

The 2005 one is a 55 as Andy looked at that car i think.

Yep, I think it is RB - it looks lovely!

In fact...I've got a tiny pic of the UK car. Doesnt look the same colour in the dull UK!

How did you manage to get these figures/production numbers of the GS?? did the Maserati Club UK give them to you??


Do you have a list of the U.K GS Spyders and the colours they are??
