Hi, just thought I'd stick this here and say hi. I think I have fallen in love with the Gran Turismo. Not hard, I know...
I've been reading a lot here over xmas - tons of incredibly useful information so thank you to everybody who posts.
It'll take a while to do this - I need to move on two cars to be able to afford the right Maserati, but I'm learning a lot in the meantime.
Fortunately I'm less than 30 minutes from Autoshield and have already briefly chatted to Marios, plus I know an ex-Maser owner who used to use AS. To me that's the key with cars - knowing there's somebody local who knows them inside out. This also means I'm maybe 45 minutes from Mr Grace, which could be useful!
I think I've narrowed it down to a post '62 GTS with the ZF gearbox.
Blown my 20k budget before I've even started but the facelift auto means better seats, blips on downshifts and no clutch to worry about although looks-wise I think I prefer the twin exhausts and less aggressive front end of the original 2007 design.
Anyway, hello, and please accept my apologies for the dumb questions that may appear from time to time! Andy
