Agree. Panel quality typical of late 60s early 70s hand laid glass fibre. By today's standards the running gear and chassis/shell doesn't compare with today nor even at the time I test drove one, so with much regret turned away and went another route.
Nevertheless, the shape is still gorgeous

1992/3 I went to the NEC car show, Marcos had a stand , I can remember sitting in one and looking at the slot for the heater slider , it looked like a row of holes had been drilled in the dash and smoothed out (badly) with a flat file, I thought, if this is one they bring to a show what are the rest like.

Here's a picture of what appears to be a gratuitous shot of a young lady in racing attire. Maybe she was the brolly girl who stayed on for a shoot or the driver's girlfriend.

Let me put minds to rest, she IS the driver. None other than Angelique Detavernier.

She's driving for Boutsen Ginion team in the Blancpain GT world series at Paul Ricard, for more info head to www.angeliquedetavernier.com

But please come back to SportsMaserati. You're welcome!

Great pic.

My mate used to race 69 as he said it would be easy to identify him when he was upside down in the gravel trap as the number would be the same. Are you 96 for the same reason?

I’ll try not to take advantage of that.

There’s s great vid of me having a spectacular off at Prescott and in the foreground is this family chatting away, completely oblivious until almost the end when they all do the meercat thing

Best “graffiti” I have ever seen..

Sums up the state of the housing industry in this country.

Spotted just outside Warwick.

To be honest as funny as it may appear it's morally wrong and just downright Greedy.
Several years ago a guy buys the Pier in Weston super Mare for a million pounds it catches fire mysteriously costs 9 million to rebuild.
What was interesting is that his background was insurance.
Not a bad investment as it must be worth more than 9 million now.
On the plus side he has a nice collection of cars especially ex works Rally Cars.

Even worse is a lot of the money came from public donations to “save the pier” and he then introduced a charge to walk on to it.
