Fellow members, the Rt Honourable Conaero and colleague Mods......
Looking over the ebay/classics sales auctions over the last few days and a following on from a number of posts/threads about the more classic Maseratis.....I would like to put a proposal before the forum.
I am sure this has been done before and doubtless there may well be experience on the board around this idea.
If we formed a 4/5/6 man plus syndicate to buy a classic Maserati, from 70s/80s, ownership being in the form of a company/syndicate format.
The realisation being that for many of us, owning a high end classic sports car with an end value (?) of 30/40/50 K wouldn't be a viable proposition, but amongst a defined group, it could be enjoyed for a "time shared" period over the course of a year ( winter storage excluded)
We would therefore need to agree the following ( not in the exact order of doing though!)....
1. The car
2. The initial purchase budget - ( whether a car with little to do/car needing mechanical or body work done/or full restoration)
3. A time frame for payments into the agree budget fund, framework for said agreed work
3. The timeframe over which the car will be owned ( plus get out agreements (annually or after first 3 years)/transfer of part ownership, final sale and dividing of sale realisation)
4. Co-ordinator of project and benefits accrued by doing so.
5. A legal contract to keep everyone involved safe and sound.
6. Time share usage over a rolling 3 year period.
This is just a tentative proposal.......I've missed out plenty no doubt.......but let me know your thoughts and whether this forum can come up with something potentially quite wonderful for those who might get involved in said project.
Thanks for your time in reading this!
