Its shiny and its on my drive!

[Cossington]

Hi,

After the perennial search for my next car, with compromises at every turn, this forum has proivided a lot of useful advice, information and confidence. The confidence comes from seeing a slightly more real-world view of the practicality/ reliability of Maseratis, compared to the bloke in the pub.

Thanks for your help previously and I suspect in the future. I got my new car on Monday and think its looks rather pleasant sitting on the drive. Here (I hope) are a few pics of my 2004, Black 4200 CC Coupe.

Ciao,
David

David,
Your new car looks great, hope your enjoying it. If you fancy a drive out next Friday a few of us are meeting up in Rugby. Have a look on the events thread.
Take it steady at first these cars are beasts coming out of corners in the wet!

Wow, what a warm, speedy group of replies. Many thanks for your kind welcoming words. I will look at the various events to meet up and enjoy endless chat about Maseratis (it'll give my wife a break from listening to me drone on about them!).
I popped up to Graypaul in Nottingham a couple of weeks ago, to meet the seller of what is now my car (it was in for a small repair as the drivers window was playing up). What an array of cars they had, (including a Ferrari Enzo, in the showroom, and ne in the workshop) and such an immaculately clean workshop - it was like an operating theatre, but with more space, less gore and sexier shapes to look at).
Before Graypaul became part of the Sytner group I used to visit the showroom in Loughborough to peer throught he windows as a boy. I worked in Loughborough at one time and the highlight of my day was driving into work past the showroom. There were some traffic lights in front of the showroom. I used to hope they would be on red every morning, to allow me more 'ogling-time' before work.

Yes wives do tend to get a bit fed up of talking cars after a week or so!
