Stratstone Ferrari & Maserati (pictures)

[GransportFan1]

Not been to a dealer for a bit, was passing today so would have been rude not to take a few snaps.

 

[GransportFan1]

However, i also saw this, by far the best looking Granturismo S, no ifs no buts, perfection.

That grey suits the 458.....more I see it in that colour the better it looks.....even better with the black roof.

 

[GransportFan1]

I would opt for the black roof, was speaking to the salesman and he said the waiting list has dropped a little now although it is still 16 months.

 

[Andyk]

People who buy new would wait i suppose because they probably would have a Ferrari and others already in the garage.

Lovely......the 458 nice in any colour......and yes the blue GT...a fine car too.

it has dropped a little because some have decided to wait for the 458 Spider.

 

[Andyk]

Ah right...nice to have the choice I suppose.

 

[GransportFan1]

Yeah, the guy was telling me people who have just received their 458 are on the waiting list for the 458 Scuderia version.

lovely blue Granturismo there...

There's a colour for everything, eh?!

shame about the Porsche...

 

[GransportFan1]

The Porsche looked so out of place, lost some money as well, was up for £84k, would have cost the original owner back in 08/09 £130k.

Agree on the blue one Adam, stunning.

 

[Andyk]

I must be the only one who the blue does nothing for then.......

Why does the Porsche look out of place?

yep your the only one who does not like Blue.



Porsche looks out of place next to all the Masers Andy, i had not seen a GT2 in ages and it did not attract my attention.

Totaly agree with you about the GTS Adam stunning in that blue thanks...

I had a look around JCT600 Leeds on Tuesday pretty poor show there particularly Maserati wise!

 

[2b1ask1]

Too lightweight?

I did take a picture of this wheel on a Ferrari... Am I alone in thinking that it looks too light to be on a supercar?

To me it looks like a strong wind would fracture it let alone any serious cornering or potholed roads...

 

[GransportFan1]

Yeah the wheels do look brittle i have to say, i would prefer them with thicker style spokes. JCT, i have passed there once and have to say it is not the best Ferrari/Maserati showroom, it shares it with Lotus and Aston Martin i think.

 

[2b1ask1]

Yes, JCT have many marques in their dealerships; in another life when I was visiting dealerships JCT600 in Leeds was one of them I serviced and I was not overly impressed then... can't say that it looks like much has changed since.

The Maser's outside were swirled and not really prepped for sale but all had their price badges in the windscreen - says it all really...

 

[GransportFan1]

I went in Porsche today and the swirls on some of the cars is shocking, never seen a tin of wax in their life, one 911 had a stone chip on the bonnet which the dealer had not bothered to attend.

Some nice cars there. The blue GTS, white Grancabrio and the GT2 for me please. I could find a use for all of those 3!
