I see there is what appears to be a genuine Centennial Stradale just appeared in my search on Autotrader: https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202311284369924

Something seems slightly off though, as the mileage is quoted as 41,800, yet the mileage on the instrument binnacle in the pictures is 29,461 (which to me suggests the pictures might be from an earlier sale and therefore maybe not be fully representative of the current condition of the car...) YMMV

Nice that, £60k and in the right colour combi (for me). Where’s that calculator…….

They had it for sale around 2 years back so that’s likely the case.

Maserati Dealers who advertise MC Stradales when they are manufactured after the 2017 Range of the very last genuine MC Stradales are guilty of Fraudulent Advertising.
Simple as that
Stradales depreciate very little
The MC range drops horrendously
Their Defence will probably be that the ( so called) Sales Executive in charge of the Fraudulent Sale was only just out of nappies....

On the face of it, that looks decent.

Errr, not really. If you want to blame anyone it's:

(1) Maserati for having such a confusing names for different models
(2) The Autotrader system for mis-identifying cars

The Rosso Centennial was,I think, owned by a guy who lived at Greenwich,( I considered purchasing it)and he sold it to, presumably Kent High Performance., a year and a half ago. Who then sold it to the present owner, who has certainly enjoyed it !

And if it sells for the advertised price, had some pretty reasonably priced fun.

Add 12k miles in 18 months and only c.£5k depreciation would be a good result - or maybe what you would hope for with a good Stradale...

Lovely car. It’s more than 5k loss though, you forgot the dealer margin!

Finally the Autotrader fix has been actioned. Stradales now correctly listed and Granturismo MC’s (Gen 3 MC’s) are listed as they should be. 5 Stradales for sale now, my two seat and four seat, as should be. A Rosso Magma Centennial listed as a standard Stradale, an Eldorado one listed as a Centennial that isn’t, and the Pietra car listed correctly as a Centennial. At least the most important factor, distinguishing between Stradales and MC’s is right, for now.
