Surprising Maserati Prices

[Phil the Brit]

Three weeks since I bought my 4200 and still on the honeymoon period. I wanted to fix some of the minor issues on the car so have been to the Main Dealer a few times buying things that were worn or broken.
Forget what everybody tells you, not ALL Maserati parts are expensive.
For example Headlight potentiometer link bar including joints £11. Full set of four original carpets £52. Two number plate lights with rubber seals and harness £11 each. Trident an V8 chrome badges full set £34.
Pleasantly surprised so far.

It's the carpets price that impresses me most.

 

[Felonious Crud]

Likewise, Bob. I'd have guessed at least double that from an MD.

Well! I just rang Eurospares for a price for a set of mats. I was quoted ........£76. I then asked him for a set of spyder mats, reminding him there are only 2 and he quoted me .......£93! Maserati pricing is still alive and kicking!

Where is this Shangri-La, Phil?

I am sure either D Lovetts or Modena Meridien would equally do you a cracking price

Is that the front grill trident badge or the 3-quarter panel one?

Also where is this place?

 

[Parisien]

Front grill badges are £50/60 plus arent they?

HR Owen in Colchester, ask for Paul, a really helpful guy.

Actually me as well, was thinking it would be at least £150!

Thanks, Phil: will certainly bear that well in mind.

HR Owen, Phil? You're showing your age Lancaster now. Although strictly speaking, Jardine's. Agreed re Paul, top guy.

Yes you are right, I often still call local garages by the names they had many years ago, a sign of old age I fear!

I remember this place when it was all fields

Or as the comedy sketch went, with the grandfather and the young lad set looking across beautiful rolling countryside... "eeeh, lad. I remember when all this were factories".

This has been covered before....depends whether an early car or late car, the early car cheap, late car expensive!
It has been proven though that both are the same identical pattern!
