So the GranTurismo is now 5 years old but where are the cheap ones?

[bigbob]

So the oldest GranTurismos are on 57 plates and came into the UK in October 2007 but where are the cheap ones?

The cheapest one on AT is a £35k private sale and the cheapest on PH is a £38.5k private sale. Cheapest Maserati dealer car is £41.25k.

It's great that residuals are so strong at c40% retail to private over 5 years and it's great they can take the miles. No bargains out there mind!

ye they have held their value...i fear they will fall though as for the GS itll go the opp direction............

 

[blue520]

Is that just wishfull thinking?

See I don't think you will see a GS at 30k or below any time soon....A GT under 40k is seen as a great car for the money and as such I think rices will hold firm from 35k plus for some time....The GT looks like an 80/90k car...Even the 35k ones and this along with its movie star looks will keep it desirable..........There a punters buying the GT that would have never considered a Maserati before.........It pulls in far more people than the 4200/GS did.........By the way I'm not having a go at the 4200/GS as they are brlliant cars but so many people notice a GT and comment on it that would not have looked at a Maserati before it came out...

I had a look at this one a couple of weeks ago when i was toying with the idea of changing my GS. Cheaper GT are like rocking horse poop up here and then this one turned up in a dealer 1 mile from my house.

Nice contrasting interior, and paintwork looked in good nick if you discount the usual stone chips.

I recon this dealer is up for striking a decent deal.

Well my GTS is up at £52,500, cheapest one out there and not a sausage, the used luxury car market is stuffed at the moment.

Totally agree Frank. It drove very, very nicely, ...... too nicely compared to the driving event that is the GS. It felt more like a Bentley! Dont get me wrong, still the best looking car about IMHO and a great leap forward in terms of fit and finish over the GS, but dare I say it, a little boring.

Nope, going to stick with the GS. Pound for pound i cant think of a better car out there.

James that caught my eye when it came up for sale...Lovely combination...The piano black steering wheel would get some getting used to but I do like it.....
