Welcome CK1; as a relative newby here myself I have to say it's a reatively easy forum to get into and some good information, just easily taken off topic!
Great car I loved taking mine to the factory the othe day& just parking in the bosses place (I'd picked him up on the way)!
Enjoy that wide smile it just gets better as your confidence in the loud pedal grows!!!

I had a test drive in mine with the previous owner who had owned it from 11k to 44k so was supremely confident in the corners etc. and really showed care for the car in doing a full 10 mile warm up of the oilly bits before getting leary... I've known him for some time and know he'd looked after it mechanically.
I totally fell in love with it and knew I had to own it... First weekend my wife took it down to Southampton where my eldest is at uni and had a run out to the New Forest; by the time she got home she had fallen for it's charms as well....
Enjoy it and keep telling yourself 'I own a bl00dy Maserati'!!! Yeah!!!

I know i still can't believe i actually own one........... wohoo................. the guy i bought it from was the owner from 5k its got 36k on the clock now and 1/2k of that is mine............. he was a stickler and i must say the car is a close to brand new looking as you can get, i didnt see one for sale that came close when i was looking.............
well im off to dream of her now.....................
