That was me! Lovely drive to Macclesfield and back today - 7 hours in the car for a 2 hour meeting and lunch. What a great way to spend the day. Didn't see any Masers all day until about 20 mins from home. Saw a pale blue Spyder which looked lovely near Wycombe about 5:30 and then a QP going the opposite direction on the M40 about 5 minutes later. Roger - were you in your Maserati? Apologies if I didn't spot you.

My Sis lives up near Macc so do a similar route from time to time....never usually see any Maserati's except for maybe around Prestbury.

Which route do you take - do you come off a J19 and go via Congleton or is there a better 'drivers' route?

I go M40, M42, M6 and in through Congleton. It's definitely the quickest route as the M40 is such a fast road. I've gone M1 up to Derby and across the Peaks before - very scenic and some nice twisties to keep it interesting.

Lovely Black GT this morning on the A316 coming into Richmond or somewhere thereabouts. Big wave as I filtered by. I look a right tool waving at all these cars.

Parked in hampstead for a while now, gathering leaves behind the wheels and a flat front tyre so I guess not used for a few months

Walk or drive past it most days and always feel a little sad.

Spring seems to have put a new life into this 3200, saw it today around hampstead & gave the driver thumbs-up as he was parking. Glad to see it was being appreciated, it's a lovely looking car.

Lovely looking black GS with personal plate M400 yesterday on the M25 coming back from St Albans. Sat in convoy for a little while. I so rarely seem to see other Massers around but then saw a light blue Spider later on the same journey.

Cheers

M400 GSP? I looked at that car about 3 years ago and it was in terrible shape. I gather the new owner has spent a lot of time & money getting it up to its current condition.

Spotted 2 GT's (I think) today in convoy on the A75 in South Scotland near-ish Newton Stuart. One was Blue, one Dark coloured. They flashed and waved at us which was great. Great to see two of them at once.
I was in a convoy of 19 various Alfa's on The 4th annual Tour of Scotland. This year was focused in Dumfries and Galloway.

I believe they were spotted a couple of times by others in our group earlier in the day as we were split up for a bit.

I spotted a silver 3200 going West across the new Severn bridge around 11:30 as I was going East and then I assume I saw the same one again going the other way around 17:15. Central reservation too bloody high to wave but it was good to see another 3200, rarely do I see any these days.
Anyone going to the Pencoed (Bridgend) motor show on the 12 of May.?
Regards
Stuart

Saw a Spyder in Bakewell (of tart/Pudding fame) Saturday LG02??? in blue parked as far away from the next car as the parking space would permit. Can't blame the owner.

I've seen two Gallardo Spyders, two 458's and a Cali' in the past couple of days round Lake Como, but not one Maserati!

Not a Maserati, but I saw a Stratos replica near the High Wycombe junction of the M40 on Monday. Looked and sounded great.

Clearly there is some kind of attraction zone around Harlow. Black GT(S?) turning North from Southern Way onto the A414 about 1908. Being driven by an elegant lady of olive complexion and raven hair.

Beautiful black Spyder in Nice. Was worried I'd go the whole trip without seeing a maser, then one pulled up next to me at the lights on the way into Nice. Both had the tops down and we exchanged a few words and grinned happily.

Super shiney black with tan interior, couldn't tell the year.
